arcgis-desktopbatchmodelbuilder
Does anyone have a script I can use in modelbuilder that will?:
parse an "_" from a filename
usable in modelbuilder with an inline variable (%name%) and Feature class iterator
transfer or copy the actual renamed shapefiles to another folder?
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
In the script make point feature class variable provided as parameter:
inputPointFC = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)
Then create a script tool with one input parameter which uses your single point feature class as Default property. This feature class name should be provided with inline variable: PointFC_%Value%, where Value is name of iterator output.
Here's a picture example:
I would use Iterate Feature Classes and Collect Values as in the graphics below.

Rather than writing a Python script tool you should be able to use a Calculate Value tool with the Python code recommended by @blah238:
The next step will be to use the Rename tool to use the text string this creates to rename the feature class.
