Hello all,
I need your help please. I am scanning thousands of documents at work
and I have to rename them according to this specific style. the
documents that were issued for example in the year 2016 should be
renamed as follows:
first document should be renamed: 1-2016. the second should be renamed
2-2016. The third should be renamed 3-2016 and so on
As you noticed, for all the documents of one year, it's only the first
digits before the dash that keeps increasing, the number after the dash
stays the same until I need to scan the documents of the previous or
following year.
It sounds like a very easy task, however, when it comes to thousands of
documents it becomes very boring and needs a lot of concentration not to
make mistakes.
Now, I want to write a script that adds an increment each time it is
executed whenever I want to rename the file. I want the increment to be
added only to the number before the dash and not the number after the
dash. Is that possible? if yes, please help me write it.
Thanks to all of you in advance!!
Best regards
Hamid
