Remove everthing before last underscore

Postby Alphastacker » Thu Nov 30, 2017 3:34 pm

I have seen similar question but couldnt find the exact answer.

I need to rename something like this: 1234_2017-06-30_Smith_Smith Group Reports.pdf

to this Smith Group Reports.pdf

So remove everything before the last underscore.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm unable to test this in BRU at the moment, but it should work.

RegEx (1)
Match: .*_(.*)$
Replace: \1

Worked perfectly. Thanks!

Is there a good RegEx cheat sheet that explains how to set these things up in BRU?

Have a read of the Getting help with Regular Expressions page.
