Hi guys,
In the multi-rename tool I have:
[C]-XXX-[YMD] [h]h [m]m
Where the "XXX" I want to have the parent Directory's Name.
Eg a file within
D:\03 - D Drive 20171224\Finance\Damages
would be called:
001-Damages-20171226 15h 04m
thanks!
Jimmy

Ok, another question then.
[C]-XXX-[P]-[YMD] [h]h [m]m
Where "XXX" is the parent directory of the nth level?
eg
Directory
D:\03 - D Drive 20171224\Finance\Damages
say of the 3nd level
so the file name becomes:
"001-Finance-Damages-20171226 15h 04m"
Any ideas?
Also I didn't get an email notification when you answered this!

Parent means parent, i.e. mother/father, not grandfather/grandmother or great-grandfather/grandmother. So [P] is the directory the files are in. [G] is the grandfather directory, i.e. one level above [P]. And, as hi5 already said: take a look at the TC help for a list of possible placeholders.
