Edit Multiple files

[geselaw]

I need help !

I want to edit multiple files one by one that are stored in a folder and store the new files in a different folder.I can not specify the file name because they would change every time.

I am a newbie so any help would be appreciated.

If going to do them one by one, then using Input> may be the answer. A file Browse button is available so you can select from the names that appear.

You can select the file you want, then run the Editing program, save the file and loop back to the Input choices until you are done editing.

Code: Select all

Label>Edit
Input>FileToEdit,Select a File to Edit
Let>REP_WAIT=1
Run Program>Notepad %FileToEdit%

//...edit and save as needed, close Notepad

Ask>Edit another file?,DoAgain
If>%DoAgain%=YES,Edit
MessageModal>Done Editing

Also be sure th check out the GetFileList command in MacroSched Help. This command puts file names in a variable, then use the Seperate command to parse them back into individual file names which you can manipulate any way you want.
