Yes, with regular expressions,
this depends on your file names.
In this case,
Example: 02252006.jpg to 20060225.jpg
you could use this reg ex:
Find:
02252006.jpg
(....)(....) -------- read as: find 4 chars and group them in (), than find another 4 chars and group them also in ().
Replace with:
\2\1 -------------- read as: build your new name by wrote the second group first, followed by the first group.
20060225.jpg
So try this in the top left RegEx field:
FIND: (....)(....)
REPALCE: \2\1
One DOT stands for any character.
Instead of "(...)" you could use "(.{4})" also, i don't know if this works in BRU?
All found with the search between the two brakes () stands for one group.
Then you can access this groups later with "\#" like \1 or \2
Please see the the regex help for details...or ask again if unclear.
