Help with searching through & renaming folders


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Please can someone tell me how to search through a given folder structure and rename subfolders found to A, B, C etc for each subfolder found? My folder structure contains extracted drivers and I need the structure to be renamed to look like this:

Audio

A

NIC

A

B

C

Video

A

B

etc.

Please can someone tell me how I can achieve this?

Many thanks,

Greg.

Hi guys,

Please can someone give me some pointers on this?

I've tried looking at FileFindFirstFile and FileFindNextFile but I can't seem to get it to work with folder names?

Thanks,

Greg.

If you are just wanting to create the structure then this should do it for you.

To rename the folders you'll have to use "DirCopy" and "DirRemove".

CODE
#Include <File.au3>

Dim $Root = "C:\"

Dim $Folders[3]

$Folders[0] = "Audio"

$Folders[1] = "NIC"

$Folders[2] = "Video"

Dim $SubFolders[3]

$SubFolders[0] = "A"

$SubFolders[1] = "B"

$SubFolders[2] = "C"

Dim $PathToFolder

Dim $PathToSubFolder

For $i = 0 TO UBound($Folders) - 1

$PathToFolder = $Root & $Folders[$i]

If Not FileExists($PathToFolder) Then

DirCreate($PathToFolder)

MsgBox(0,"Folder Created", $Folders[$i])

EndIf

For $j = 0 To UBound($SubFolders)- 1

$PathToSubFolder = $PathToFolder & "\" & $SubFolders[$j]

if not FileExists($PathToSubFolder) Then

DirCreate($PathToSubFolder)

MsgBox(0,"Folder Created", $SubFolders[$j])

EndIf

Next

Next

Do not today what you can get someone else to do tomorrow.
