Sort by date in name? Wed Aug 17, 2016 2:02 am • by thesillyrabbit
I have a folder that updates with pictures from a security camera. It labels the files with camera name and date (yyyymmdd) How do I make a rule to sort these files into subfolders by the date in the name of the file? If I choose file name -> Matching how do I get it to recognize the date structure I have set up?

Thanks

Check the help for "match patterns" as that should tell you what you need.
