Trying to find/replace specific characters in filename tags

New Here ,
Nov 08, 2023 Nov 08, 2023

I have a document I imported multiple artwork files with their filenames in text boxes underneath and I am trying to simplify the filename by removing a certain number of characters at the end but the problem is the characters are all different so I dont know how to tell Find/Change to account for varying characters in the filenames to be able to remove them from all text boxes. Is this even possible?ScreenShot_20231108125127.jpeg

You need to be more precise. Characters after the last (or first) underscore, for example? Some other criterion?

Yeah, as @Peter Kahrel pointed out - we need more information - which part you want to replace / remove - then GREP expresion culd be created.
