Hi there,

I need a way to rename rows using a file list (csv file or other file type) from a search job / dashboard.

Thank you,
Bogdan.

Hi valiquet,

I don't think this will gonna work because is a long list of process names and i want to rename name of the process from field .... if this make's any sense ...

I have something like this:

ProcessName Count of timestamp
c:\program files (x86)\common files\adobe\arm\1.0\adobearm.exe 2
c:\program files (x86)\google\chrome\application\chrome.exe 1106273
c:\program files (x86)\google\update\googleupdate.exe 54

And i would like to have it like this:

ProcessName Count of timestamp
adobearm.exe 2
chrome.exe 1106273
googleupdate.exe 54

But also to be in live search in the dashboard.

First thought was to use a csv file because is easier to manage, but i think i could also go even deeper and edit index (?) or other file where i could find how is setting the process name (?)

Thnx.
