Removing First 5 Characters from File Names

[JMichaelTX]

@Brettarius

I need a macro that will remove the first 5 characters from the names of .jpg files in a folder. The file names always begin with four numbers, followed by a space, as in these examples:

0000 RM2280_FG_v10.jpg
0001 RM2290_FG_v10.jpg
0002 RM2300_BG_v11.jpg

I'd like the macro to rename the files to the following:

RM2280_FG_v10.jpg
RM2290_FG_v10.jpg
RM2300_BG_v11.jpg

If your requirement is to always remove the FIRST 5 characters of the file name, this can be done completely in KM without using any scripts.

I have just posted this macro:

Please let us know if it meets your needs.

@kcwhat, didn't see your post until after I made mine. Looks like we have a similar approach.
