find some word in text list file and a bit change to them - RolanRoll - Jun-26-2022

hi
I need to find some word in my text list file for example V_20220412 in
S1A_IW_SLC__1SDV_20220412T022912_20220412T022940_042734_05197D_3860

then i want to omit " _" so then , it is like this: V20220412
and then i want to get one day before this date : V20220411
after doing these steps for all rows in text list file ,I want to save them in another text file like this:
V20220411
V20220318
V20220222
V20220128
V20220105

Use "re" (regular expression) to find the desired string. Use "datetime" to do date arithmetic.
Show us your program, and we will help you.

Are you searching for exactly V_20220412or do you need every occurrence of an eight character sequence that begins withV_or something else?

hi
first of all i appreciate your help (you and ibreeden) and as you can see in my file names in text list file (below) the date repeated 2 times in every file names (in fore example text list file) but with different times (T= time) i need just date with letter V before because i need the text file that you named it before : "pattern_list.txt" ( your previous code for solving my previous post ) in https://python-forum.io/thread-37560.html
so i know you understand what i exactly need (good job) .i have tried to say my problem in two parts(2 posts) because i say these 2 posts in one question , many times ago and i cannot get answer of any body.

S1A_IW_SLC__1SDV_20220223T022912_20220223T022940_042034_0501CA_70EF
so for every rows in my text list file (or every file name) , i need to find just one repeated date joined with V and then subtract one day fore all of them (so it should be formatted as date ):
V20220411
V20220222
