I have a bunch of files movies , starting with the name of movie , and then the star name but I need to change the order .. first the star name then the movie name and the scene

( the heaven is yours scene 01 - Lolita simony )
( the heaven is yours scene 02 - Patty Allot )
etc ...

I want to change to

( Lolita simony - the heaven is yours scene 01 )
( Patty Allot - the heaven is yours scene 02 )


Using the ( - ) like reference, because is the symbol that separated the one to the other !




Many thanks in advance

Try this Replace Method:

Text to be replaced: (.+)( - )(.+)
Replace with: $3$2$1
Use regular expression: Tick

Summary: Search for any series of characters up to but not including the space-dash-space combination. This is placed in group 1. The space-dash-space combo itself is placed in group 2. Then look for another series of characters, and place these in group 3.

In the replace string, put group 3 first ($3), followed by group 2 ($2) and then finally group 1 ($1). This effectively swaps group 1 and group 3.
