I would like to only have the numbers from the file names printed in the .txt file.
C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\qwerty - 123.pdf
C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\qw erty_456.pdf
C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\qwe rt y789.pdf
right now, I use:
cd C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\
for %%a in (*.pdf) do echo %%~na >> C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\file_names.txt
what do I need to add to this code in order to have my wishes come ture?
SOLVED!
By using JREPL.BAT by Dave Benham
and STRIP.CMD :
cd C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\
@echo off
echo Cleaning out old data
:: Remove old instances of output files in order not to create duplication in the files
del file_name_list_numerics.txt
echo Done!
echo Building file list.
for %%a in (*.pdf) do echo %%~na >> C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\file_names.txt
echo Done!
echo Stripping non-numeric characters from file list.
call jrepl "\D" "" /f file_names.txt /o -
echo Done!
echo Removing empty lines.
For /F "delims=" %%A in (file_names.txt) Do Echo %%A >> C:\Users\asd123\Desktop\file_name_list_numerics.txt
echo Done!
echo Cleaning up temp data.
del file_names.txt
echo Done!
