Moving text in a filename

[mamaijee]

I had put the below in Regex section but guess it was the wrong place, so am requesting on this section for help. I tried downloading Regex Coach but it seemed like greek to me without any background of the same

I need to rename a lot of filenames where the series name in brackets at the end has to come before the name of the cookbook

eg
Nina Rhodes - No Effort Baking (Baker's Special 1).mobi
should read as below with bracket change() to []
Nina Rhodes - [Baker's Special 1] - No Effort Baking

Any help with regex will be very appreciated. If there is some way It can be fone from main BU main screen that would be great too. I am using Ver 3.0.0.1

Thank u

(again, just guessing...)


RegEx:1

Code: Select all

Match: (.*) - (.*) (\(.*)
Replace: \1 - \3 - \2


And then go back in afterwards Replace ( With [, & ) With ]


Edit, instead:

Special:14, Character Translation

Code: Select all

(=[
)=]
