okay I think this is very easy...
Simple Find and Replace will do the job..
Try find "*– "(without Quotes) and replace it will nothing..
the is not a normal hypen(-), copy and paste the above portion without quotes and replace it with nothing..
will definitely do the job..

hi vikas,thanks for the direction. i was trying "find and replace" for several times. since i could only put a normal hypen it was not yeilding the required result. now that when i copy pasted the splcharacter it worked fine. i would like to ask you where on my keyboard can i find the spl character which is "hyphen- like" but NOT A HYPHEN. thanksOriginally Posted by Vikas_Gautam
in this example ,how can I get the first part only?
01 – Oru Ragam – hwh.tantryum.om.mp3
02 – Enge En – jen.tantryum.om.mp3
03 – Thendral Vandhu – jtj.tantryum.om.mp3
I expect to get the result as
Oru Ragam .mp3
Enge En .mp3
Thendral Vandhu .mp3

To get your "special symbol" try using the insert symbol dialog.
