Please help me in Renaming a file and extension

[mohan93]

Hi Everyone, 

I have 2 queries, please assist,

1. Rename a file:

I have a file in C:TempGLW123.tmp 

I need to rename the file to Setup.wse  and the file should be placed in the same directory C:temp

2. Embedding a .VBS file within the autoScript complied EXE.

i can achieve the above renaming functionality  using below VBS. 

SearchFileName = "GLW123.tmp"               

RenameFileTo   = "SETUP.WSE"

For each file In folder1.Files    

    'WScript.Echo (file.Name)

    If instr(file.name, searchFileName) = 1 Then

         file.name = renameFileTo

           Exit For

    End If

Next

 

is there any option to embed this VBS inside the EXE and use the VBS in my autoit script.

 

Please Help.

Hi, mohan93. Why bother using the vbs at all? Check the help file for more info on _FileListToArray.

#include <File.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $aArray = _FileListToArray("C:\Temp", "*", 1)

    For $i = 1 To $aArray[0]
        If $aArray[$i] = "GLW123.tmp" Then FileMove("C:\Temp\GLW123.tmp", "C:\Temp\SETUP.WSE", 1)
    Next

Uhm, why are you using _FileListToArray() at all? That doesn't make much sense to me.

Just FileMove() it.

Awesome, Thanks JLogan3o13 and Queen F. Elizabeth MCXI

Trancexx, I only did so because the OP showed that he was doing a search in the vbs in his OP. It appeared he was searching the directory to see if the file exists, and then moving. Otherwise you are of course correct, I would have simply done a FileMove.
