[grin] ///// now ... do you really want to combine those 3 input file names into one file name? if not ... please show what you want each to end up with. exactly what you want each of those demo file names to become. | |

if you use $_.name -match '(19|20\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})' or another regex of your choice - you will have the complete date in $Matches[0] and you can put it wherever you want

| Jan 21, 2022 at 18:09 | comment | added | Frank Thomas | Id usually use a regular expression with 3 capture groups; everything before the date, the date, and everything after the date. then I'd use an replace expression like $0$2$1 to combine what is before and after the date, and drop the date at the end. | |
