Folder Monitor & File Contents Checker
Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2019 7:18 am
Hi Oleg, Are there any plans to File contents reader so I can save as variables?
I'm busy researching ways to auto sort files into folders based on the file names and also file contents where possible. Example: Monitor the downloads folder for files containing the word "Payment_Notification" with extensions "pdf", I then want to have the file moved into a Payments folder, append the date of the transaction and the Payee or Recipient name to the file name, then create a folder based on the payment month.
1. Will I be able to use the current "File Monitor"?
2. How do I extract file contents from a PDF, txt, xlsx etc ?
I've found another application that can do this, but would rather stick to using RT. Any ideas on how to implement this?
