Hey Mike, sorry for my late reply. I think you did not understand my problem:
The file name "2025.04.06 testdata" is changed to only "2025.04.ods" that means
the part ".06 testdata" is missed!!!
And this change is made when I change the filter... So the origin name of the
file must be edited thereafter. And what I expect should be "2025.04.06
testdate.xlxs"
