Hi,

Maybe something like this.

Path.GetFullPath(YourFilePath).Replace(" ","")

@sullivanne

Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(CurrentFile.ToString).Replace(" ", "")

@sullivanne,

Use this in Rename File activity.

Path.GetDirectoryName(currentItem)+"\"+Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(currentItem).ToString.Replace(" ","")

This should remove the file name spaces.

Thanks,
