substitute file name
correct file names are:
*_0.txt
*_1.txt
incorrect file names are:
*_12.txt
*_0123.txt
*_04321.txt
all files that are incorrect need to replace the ending with *_1.txt
therefore need to create a loop to find the wrong files in a dir ->that dont end in _1.txt or _0.txt and then modify the end of the files names to *_1.txt while retaning the orginal part of the filenames.
thanks
