Unwanted prefix of "Copy of " added to file name of opened Excel attachments

How can I stop the prefix of "Copy of " from being added to the file name when I save an Excel file that was mailed as an attachment?
It is very annoying to have to keep deleting that unwanted addition to my filenames.

1) Don't open attachments - save them first and then open them.
2) You can use this code in the ThisWorkbook object of your Personal.xls:
Private WithEvents App As Application
Private Sub App_WorkbookBeforeSave(ByVal Wb As Workbook, ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    If InStr(1, Wb.Name, "Copy of ") = 1 Then
        Application.EnableEvents = False
        Cancel = True
        Wb.SaveAs Replace(Wb.FullName, "Copy of ", "")
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    End If
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    Set App = Application
End Sub

Cannot 'Consolidate Library" : Copying music failed , the file name was too

Hi,
I am trying to move all the music library to my new computer ( this is my 3rd time of changing my PC). I tried to consolidate the library... but the message was
Copying music failed , the file name was invalid or too long"
I already moved the Itunes to my new pc, but my new Itunes cannot "Relocating my file"
Please help me

To find out which file it was, look at where you were
copying them too and see which was the last file
copied - and then go back to your source, and go to
the next one - it should be that one.
I just wanted to add that I had the same issue (failure to finish copying and "invalid or too long" error msg) and at first didn't see how looking for the last file copied would work since iTunes is copying into folders.
Duh.
Reverse sort by date modified (newest folder at the top of the list) then drill down to the folder containing the files being copied. Voila. There was the (missing) culprit, and I knew which file to rename in the source folder.
Thanks for the kick in the brain pan.

This Bash script will do it.
Edit "PicDir" and "MovDir" to the location of your Folders

Additional words added to file name

For certain forms, when the user submits the form the file name, as expected, is the name that I gave the form. But additionally, Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf is added after the file name. See figure. Is there a way to keep the "Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf" from being added?
Thanks,

I have a submit button that "clicks" a hidden button. The hidden button has script that verifies that all
required fields are filled in. Script on that button "clicks" another invisible button which opens email where
the user selects the email recipients.
I put the script you suggested in the PreSubmit event of the form, and then each of the Submit buttons and none of these worked.

How to auto save output with date added to file name, and email the results?

Hi,
We found a script to capture disk space usage, that automatically places the results into an Excel file. We would like the script to autosave this file to a specific directroy with the date ran as part of teh file name. We would then like these results to
be emailed to us if possible. (also if possible to highlight cell in red that is 5% OR less available disk space would be great)
Here is what we have:
$erroractionpreference = “SilentlyContinue”
$a = New-Object -comobject Excel.Application
$a.visible = $True
$b = $a.Workbooks.Add()
$c = $b.Worksheets.Item(1)
$c.Cells.Item(1,1) = “Machine Name”
$c.Cells.Item(1,2) = “Drive”
$c.Cells.Item(1,3) = “Total size (GB)”
$c.Cells.Item(1,4) = “Free Space (GB)”
$c.Cells.Item(1,5) = “Free Space (%)”
$c.cells.item(1,6) = "Name "
$d = $c.UsedRange
$d.Interior.ColorIndex = 19
$d.Font.ColorIndex = 11
$d.Font.Bold = $True
$d.EntireColumn.AutoFit()

Adding the file name to each page of a pdf

I need to find a script that will allow me to add the file name of a pdf to each page within the pdf. I need the file name to appear in one of the corners of the pdf.
for example if the file name is 001.pdf then I need to somehow attach that so it appears in one of the corners of ach page within the pdf
I have to do this for 20,000 pdf files so any help would be massively appreciated.
thanks
Jim

I assume you have Acrobat Pro for editing, although you don't say.
This should get you started by showing how to extract the name of one file (that you have selected) in the Finder and then to pass this to a JavaScript that is executed by Acrobat:
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFDDFF;
overflow: auto;">
tell application "Finder"
set theFile to selection as alias
set theTitle to name of theFile
end tell
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Pro"
open theFile
--now add theTitle to the bottom/centre of all pages
do script "this.addWatermarkFromText({ cText: \"" & theTitle & "\", nFontSize: 12, nHorizAlign: app.constants.align.center, nVertAlign: app.constants.align.bottom, nVertValue: 12});"
--uncomment one of these options
--close document 1 saving no
--close document 1 saving yes
end tell </pre>
I just noticed that you want the name in a corner - just change the word 'center' to 'left' or 'right'

Adding image file name and logo to image

Can you do batch processing of images to automatically insert the image file name, say at the bottom along with a logo, in black font. The logo stays constant but the image deatils will change with each image?
Can this be done in Lightroom or then the full Photoshop?
Thanks!

I've taken the script mentioned above and modified it to the best of my abilities. Still getting the same error, unfortunately:
function main(){
var suffix ="cropped";
var docPath =Folder("~/Desktop");
if(!docPath.exists){
   alert(docPath + " does not exist!\n Please create it!");
   return;
var fileName =activeDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
var fileExt =activeDocument.name.toLowerCase().match(/[^\.]+$/).toString();
var saveFile = new File(docPath +"/"+fileName+suffix+'.'+fileExt);
switch (fileExt){
   case 'jpeg' : SaveJPEG(saveFile); break;
   default : alert("Unknown filetype please use manual save!"); break;
if(documents.length) main();
function SaveJPEG(saveFile, jpegQuality){
jpgSaveOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions();
jpgSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
jpgSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;
jpgSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
jpgSaveOptions.quality = jpegQuality; //1-12
activeDocument.saveAs(saveFile, jpgSaveOptions, true,Extension.LOWERCASE);

Tilde (~) added to file name?

The other day, iBooks Author began creating duplicate files on save with a tilde (~) character at the end of file name. Anyone know what's going on here and how to make it stop?
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Lion 10.7.3, which I updated to the other day, right around the same time this started happening.

I believe that is a 'version' of your original file that only contains changes at a given point in time.
See Lion's Help on: versions
KT you are correct.
To see this in action place the file you are working on you desktop. Then make a few changes in iBooks Author and see the 'phantom file' appear too on your desktop.
Save a version of all your work and see the tilded version disapear since it is no longer needed.
Neat! and it is defintely a feature of LION.
I read through some more posts and noted you updated to include correctly this appears with other Apple files on Mac. I work with all kinds of documents on the desktop and then clean up after the day is done by moving them elsewhere. TexEdit and other programs, even Preview at times produces this tilde version for a few minutes. It is data not commited yet.

File name after opening in Photoshop CS3

After adjusting an image in Lightroom 1.1, I open it, reflecting the Lightroom changes, in Photoshop CS3. When I'm done tweaking the image in Photoshop CS3, I save it as a PSD file. The problem: I find that two PSD files have been saved, one with the file name (as I intended) and one with the file name with "-Edit" appended to it (before the PSD extension). How can I avoid having the second file (with the "-Edit" appended) created and saved?
Thanks.
Harvey

The -edit file is the first file. That file is the method LR uses to send the image to CS3.

Is it possible to propose another default file name in ALV Excel Export?

Hello All,
I have a problem while exporting to Excel from the WD ALV. The whole process works fine, the problem occurs when the user wants to open (without saving) multiple exported Excel documents at the same time. In this case he gets an error message, that the document with the same name has already been opened.
Therefore I have a question, is it possible to customize default file name, so that instead of 'export.xlsx' the file name will contain e.g. WD title&time (or something like that)?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,
It's the standard functionality. You actually have to enhance the standard method, which is not advisable as the same will be called in other applications as well.
So, Instead of that, hide the standard Export functionality and create a new Tool bar button, say, 'Export to Excel' and in on action of that button, use cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response ( and pass the file name by concatenating date/time) method to open/save the file.
Check this document to create a custom button in ALV tool bar: Creating Self-Defined Functions in WDA ALV
And, check this blog by Chris for code reference to have Export to Excel functionality: Using WD ABAP ALV export - the hacked way
Hope this helps u,
Regards,
Kiran

Is there a way to alter the file name given to the attachments in an email button?

When ever I click the standard email button, I get an attachement with random alfa and numeric characters for the file name. Is there any way to change the files names to match a data field in the form or start with something I choose?
Thanks,
Judy

Hi RudyLou36,
While viewing the form in Preview TAB of LC Designer you will always get the junk characters as the name of the file. Save the file and open it in Acrobat or Reader.
You won't be able to change the filename unless you save the file first. Here (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/462681) is an example of a number of ways to deal with parts of the email programatically.
