Here is the idea: .Dim file_list, string
.Dim next_file, string
.Dim old_name, string
.Dim new_name, string
.Dim ext, string
.Dim is_empty, boolean
.
.Dir "your path here", file_list
.isEqual "", file_list, is_empty
.
.LoopUntil is_empty, END_OF_LOOP
. GetToken file_list, ",", next_file
. // calc full file name
. ConcatEx "old path...", "\\", next_file, old_name
. // split file name onto different parts
. GetToken next_file, ".", name_part
. // build new full file name
. Set ext, next_file
. ConcatEx "new path...", "\\@T"ddmmyyyy"DY.", ext, new_name
. // rename it
. FileRename old_name, new_name
.
. isEqual "", file_list, is_empty
.END_OF_LOOP: : Hello,
: I can have any number of files in a directory but they will have a unique
: file extension - I want to rename the files to todays date and keep the
: original file extension and then move them to a backup folder. : eg file.DY1, file.DY2, file.DY3 : Would all be renamed as DDMMYYYY.DY1, DDMMYYYY.DY2, DDMMYYYY.DY3 and then
: placed in my backup folder.
: The problem I am having is renaming the files to be todays date and keeping
: the file extension. I can rename the files using the macro parameter OK to
: get todays date but I can't seem to be able to use a wildcard to keep the
: file extension. : Any ideas ?
