So what I'm trying to do is extract part of a file name from a column in a readtable. I already have the specific column assigned to a variable but I'm trying to create a path which requires me to pull part of the filename. Here's an example:
This is one of several hundred file names.
SSSM 5 – 15Nov17_1152 – GE – right – 9.fantasy.tiff
I need:
15Nov17_1152
It is in the same place for all the files. I have looked at several previous questions but I am really new to coding and the all have underscores around there's. If someone could solve this example for me and explain (in simple terms)how to apply it to several hundred file names.
