Hello Ravinder,

Thanks for the reply, let me clarify my question.

I have a folder with multiple files, all these files must be in this format (i.e 12345_dbname_1_sqlname.sql).
  • The first text before the underscore must always be a 5 digit number
  • The second one must always be a string (i.e database1, database2 etc)
  • The third one must be also a number (i.e 1, 2, 3, 4,5 etc)
  • The fourth one must be a any text.sql.
The file names will be checked on adhoc basis. This will be running on solaris 10.

Regards,
Philani
