I am looking to remove the space from a disk number (ie. abc123 - 6) however the file name does have to maintain spaces in the Track and artist info
so old file is: abc123 - 06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 new name should be: abc123-06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 Any ideas how I can use regular expressions for this? I tried using REPLACE: (\d) - (\d) WITH: (\d)-(\d) reg exp: tick but i keep getting this: old: abc123 - 06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 new: abc12\d-\d6 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 thanks in advance |

text to be replaced Replace: (^.+?)\s?\-\s?(.+) Replace with: \1-\2 this expression should work with those variants: abc123 - 06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 abc123- 06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 abc123 -06 - Jimmy Singer - Song1.mp3 and keep the final format cheers |
