Perhaps I should of included that per use royalty routine ...


Glad you're getting some use out of it.  ;)

dcwul62:
I have been puzzling about the below quite regularly. Sofar I renamed/copied files to folders 'manually', i.e. naming folders myself, not using setfoldatefm.

I wonder if it can be included in setfoldate though, as it is something regularly occuring with many files.

example

This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971 - 01 - 17052015 102910.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971 - 02 - 17052015 102510.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971 - 03 - 17052015 103059.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971 - 04 - 17052015 103410.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971-05-17052015 102910.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971-06-17052015 102510.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971-07-17052015 103059.png
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971-08-17052015 103410.png

to a folder
This & that - SomeFileName and Some Text 1971

I vainly tried to figure this out myself.

Hope there is an easy solution for this, but if it is too complex, please leave it as t is.
I will continue the 'manual way'.

thanks

I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here since SetFolDate only affects the dates of folders, it has no effect on any other attribute nor does it have any effect on files.

Didn't this get answered in another thread?

I suggested using DOpus to rename them into new folders.

There are two methods...

1)
-
DONE: Change (sub) folder(s) date based on newest/oldest file in the folder

-

and

2)

-
DONE: Change (sub) folder(s) date based on newest/oldest file in the folder
-

I meant the method under nbr 2

4wd:
You're not talking about SetFolDate, you're talking about a script that incidentally calls it.

Still works fine here, what does the output log show?
