Wildcard for one character?

Hi! I'm trying to change the pattern for how the date on some folders show up, from "20130101 Folder" to "2013-01-01 Folder", using Replace, but when I put in a wildcard (2013* ) it takes away all characters before the space. Is there a way to get a one character wildcard, or is there some better way altogether to use instead?

A simple way to add dashes to dates is to use the Replace method and configure it like this: Text to be replaced: (\d\d\d\d)(\d\d)(\d\d) Replace with: \1-\2-\3 Use regular expressions: checked The \d character is used to represent one digit (0-9). The \1, \2, and \3 is used to represent the matched value of a group in the pattern. A group is defined by (). |
