Hi Jlliagre, i try to clarify more things but my case like the following;
There is a file named
ABC1234.txt
Script should get the last 4 letter in filename, that would be (1234).
This value will be my variable for further process.
I dont know the CSH codes for these process, that's why i could not write any code.
Thanks,
zibi
