File Name Extraction Tool (Simple Logic)

I need a simple program that is compatible with Windows 7,8,10 that can be executed locally or installed as a program. No preference on that. The program needs to be able to do the following tasks: Browse local file system to select only one file. Multi selection not needed or wanted. Also, when browsing it will only accept .zip files and it will only show .zip files that exist when browsing the file system. After selecting the .zip file, just below there will be another browse button to select where we will store the .csv or .txt output file, which I will explain below. I am not 100% sure if .csv or .txt is preferred so I would like to have a radio button to choose one of those two options. I would also like if the program can keep the last chosen location of where to store the output as well as keep the last used .csv or .txt option selected in the radio button. The first option of selecting a .zip file does not need to be remembered and preferably that is blank when opening the program. Based on what I just said, possibly this needs to be a program that gets installed as I am not sure if a locally executed program has this ability. I am inclined to think it does have the capability using some .ini file in the root or subfolder of the program.e Whichever direction works best is fine. Now, the operation of what I want to do is a very static one which is a great thing to lessen any pain on your side. All I need to do is pull the phone number from the filename. This phone number is always going to be the first 10 characters of the file name. The filename also will always be a .wav file. So these static settings will undoubtedly help quite a bit in lessening validation, regex, etc. For each .wav in the .zip file I want one phone number per line to be output. It would be helpful to process the .zip contents in A-Z order. This would make it easy to then line up the output file with a view of the file system simply for testing purposes in verifying the functionality. It is not important that the program processes the .zip file and outputs the phone numbers A-Z. It is fine if it grabs in any way that is normally called for by the class. I am very sure that this will process so fast that there is no need to have a progress bar. There might be 50k files at the most so it would be nice if it can be load tested up to 500k files just to make sure! I would like a simple message to display below all the options in the window that says "X amount of records processed." Not much validation needed there. It would be easy for the user to see if there is a correct count using .csv file. That is the entirety of the project. User browses and selects .zip file, then browses and selects a folder for the output, then chooses .txt or .csv, then clicks Process. File naming convention is always the same and the phone number is always the first 10 digits of the .wav file. I will provide a .zip file with 500k files for testing within a 72 hours of this posting. I can provide a simple drawing of UI if needed but it is so basic I cannot imagine it would require much back and forth communication if there is any confusion.

Hi, it can be a "portable" tool that will preserve settings in an .ini file, as suggested. The idea is very simple and can be implemented in few hours. I'm willing to code this tool starting at any time. I will use Delphi IDE and will send source code upon completion. Many thanks, Damian.

First off, i'd like to say its refreshing to see such a well documented proposal instead of the usual "Make me a program", describing exactly what you want makes everyone life easier. I have developed a program extremely similar to what you have described before(Cloud-Storage Portfolio), so implementing your project should be relatively simple. I will use a recursive Breadth-First-Search (BFS) algorithm to search for the file and then simple string manipulation to retrieve the mobile number. I will develop the application in C# using standard .Net libraries. I have over 4+ years C# experience. If this proposal interested you i would be willing to negotiate on the price, depending on how quickly you want the project finishing. Hope to hear from you soon. Regards.
