Rename file to its folder's name.

[raghuk]

I have about 20 directories which get updated every day at a certain location in the system.

Eg.,

ABC folder contains ABC_2012_04_11_045308_1288340.txt

XYZ folder contains XYZ_2012_04_11_045308_1288340.txt

I need to loop through each folder,

- find the file that matches the folder name
- Rename the file to its folder name

Eg., ABC_2012_04_11_045308_1288340.txt Should become ABC.txt

Here's what I'm doing.

<step action='Rename Files'>
<Dir>%PROCFILES_ROOT_DIR%%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%</Dir>
<Ext>*.bak</Ext>
<Find> [FormatDirectoryName("%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%")]</Find>
<FirstOnly type='11'>0</FirstOnly>
<HideOn type='11'>-1</HideOn>
<LogRenamed type='11'>-1</LogRenamed>
<LogUnchanged type='11'>-1</LogUnchanged>
<Replace> [FormatDirectoryName("%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%")]</Replace>
<SysOn type='11'>-1</SysOn>
<indent type='3'>2</indent>
<name>Rename Files</name>
</step>

I see that the above step finds the files, but does not rename them. What am I missing?

See the attached sample.

That worked.. I had to check "Process once for each folder containing matching files".

Thank you!
