Copy and configure the Hazel scripts

Hi there,

I am looking for an way to copy and adjust many hazelactions.

I am working with datanames for the things to store..
f.e.

We have one dropOff Folder with Hazel active:

Hazel checks the beginning the name of an document...
PRO160-IM-IC-Facebook.png goes to Folder on NAS Projects/PRO160/PRO160-IM/PRO160-IC/
PRO199-IM-IC-Facebook.png goes to Folder on NAS Projects/PRO199/PRO199-IM/PRO199-IC/

So Hazel moves the Files to the relevant Storage location.
Everything is the same instead of the PROjectNumber. This changes only.

How can I get Hazel to know that the PRO Number has to change, but the Number has to be changed in the Folder Name also.
I reaaly do´nt like to make every rule for hazel on the normal process.

I think about the following.
Copy the programmline, copy and change with find and change option of excel or texteditor.

Hope you habe an idea. I opened the export file from hazel with an editor, looks not good :)

First off, please do not post questions to the Tips forum. The sticky article there tells you not to do this.

If I understand you correctly, you want to use match patterns. Search for it in the help as there's an example there. You can also check out a_freyer's post here for an example.
