Hi,

REX command rex mode=sed to remove quotation marks and numbers inside of them

 

OUTPUT file "19214132.IKU" copied to output directory

OUTPUT file "19315133.IKU" copied to output directory

OUTPUT file "19416134.IKU" copied to output directory

....

 

Desired result ->   OUTPUT file .IKU copied to output directory
