+7Hello,
please, I have one problem to solve. Is it possible to change filename extension in FME? E.g. I need to change filename "Analysis.doc" to "Analysis.docx" automatically in workspace. Probably some Python script is suitable there... Unfortunately, I´m not Python expert.
Could anybody help me please?
Thak You so much!
Lubo
+31You can do this using the filecopy writer in fme
An example of reading all the .doc files in a directory, using the filecopy writer to create .docx followed by a system caller to delete the original

+7Hello @erik_jan, @egomm and @redgeographics,
Im not sure, if REN command in SYSTEMCALLER can help me... Probably, I should be more specific - I need to convert file with extension ".svg.gz" to special extension ".svg+px". Is it possible via REN command please?
If you need to manipulate a filename in an attribute (as opposed to the name of an actual file), there's also the FilenamePartExtractor which lets you split a path and/or filename into its individual parts.

It won't touch the file, however. So if you need to rename an actual file, then no, the FilenamePartExtractor won't to that for you, unless you use it in conjunction with e.g. the FILECOPY writer, as suggested by @egomm
