Finding file names that have spaces

[jrschell]

I have been searching the forum and google for a while now and I have not found an answer to this question:

Is there a way to find only files with a space(s) in the file name?

I have nearly 170,000 survey files that I need to search though, and I have experimented several ways in the Selections(12) Filter to do this, but I am either getting every file or no files.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Selection does not support regular expression , just simple Windows masks so it is not possible to select only files with spaces unfortunately.

Thank you for the reply. I was afraid that was the answer.

What I ended up doing was using a "*" in the Selections (12) panel, applying a " " in the Replace in the Replace(3) window, selecting all files and sorting by "New Name" up top. This at least would show which files had spaces. I deselected all and I manually selected the ones I wanted to rename.

Thanks again and maybe this would be something to put on a wish list if you have one available.
