I've a doubt regarding the limiting the characters of a folder name


I've a folders named as
Folder_00000123_ABC_000
Folder_00000124_ABC_000


what is the command/script to type in command window to rename the above folder name using either labtalk or origin:
Folder_123
Folder_124

Hello,

You can rename the folder in Origin Project in this way:

pe_cd /;    //Go to the level which contains the two specific folder
pe_rename Name newName;  //rename the folder name with the newName

please refer to this page for further information.

You can use %[]-notation as follows:

newname$=%[%(oldname$),1:7]%[%(oldname$),13:15]

If you need to rename a project folder you can do it using Project Explorer X-function:

pe_rename oldname$ newname$

Thanks for the quick response quys.Very helpful

I've got one more doubt, If there are two or three folders with same name, origin doesn't create a duplicate folder, how to enable it?

For example:
If i create subfolders in the same folder
Input:
MainFolder
-Folder_123
-Folder_123
Output Requirement:
MainFolder
-Folder_123
-Folder_123(1)

how to do this like automatically duplicating a folder name when there is actually a same folder name

Use exist() function to check whether a folder exists in a project (requires ver. 8.1SR2 or higher):

if (exist(fname$,25)==25) fname$=fname$+"(01)"
