Rename file to its folder's name.
 
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.


%PROCFILES_ROOT_DIR%%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%
*.bak
[FormatDirectoryName("%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%")]
0
-1
-1
-1
[FormatDirectoryName("%PROCFILES_FILE_DIR%")]
-1

Rename Files


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

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

Thank you!
