Rename dynamic filename from a folder in a static one

Build Studio
#1

Hi all,

any idea how to rename a file from a folder like this:
initial name: name_file_118615241345157.xls
final name: name_file.xls?
the initial name is dynamic, daily is different so simple move activity doesn’t work, because i need to use *
consider that in that folder can be also other files, but not containing name_file in their names.

Thanks,
Cosmin

If MyFileName is string “name_file_118615241345157.xls”, you can save the file to System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(MyFileName, "_\d+", String.Empty).

In that case, use this one:

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(MyFileName, “((_|-)\d+)+”, String.Empty).
