Rename file with VBA Name function not working properly - excel

Question

I'm preparing a code which would every month help users rename specific string in multiple files.
Example: from "Jan" to "Feb", from "Bank" to "Cash", from "Test" to "Sharp" etc. (Bank Statement Jan.xls -> JPM Statement Jan.xls, Form test.xls -> Form sharp.xls, etc.)
I use a function to populate files from all folders and also subfolder picked up a FileDialog, then I prompt the user to InputBox string to be found and string to be replaced in the file name.
Sub testrenametest()
Dim filedlg As FileDialog
Dim xPath As String
Dim fileList As Object
Dim vFile As Variant
Dim FindTerm As String, ReplaceTerm As String, NewFileName As String
Set filedlg = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
With filedlg
.Title = "Please select folder"
.InitialFileName = ThisWorkbook.Path
If .Show <> -1 Then End
xPath = .SelectedItems(1) & "\"
End With
FindTerm = InputBox("Find string:") ReplaceTerm = InputBox("Replace with:")
Set fileList = getFileList(xPath)
For Each vFile In fileList
If vFile Like "*" & FindTerm & "*" Then
NewFileName = Replace(vFile, FindTerm, ReplaceTerm)
Name vFile As NewFileName
End If
Next vFile
End Sub
Function getFileList(Path As String, Optional FileFilter As String = "*.*", Optional fso As Object, Optional list As Object) As Object
Dim BaseFolder As Object, oFile As Object
If fso Is Nothing Then
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set list = CreateObject("System.Collections.ArrayList")
End If
If Not Right(Path, 1) = "\" Then Path = Path & "\"
If Len(Dir(Path, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then
MsgBox "You need to browse folder first!"
End
End If
Set BaseFolder = fso.GetFolder(Path)
For Each oFile In BaseFolder.SubFolders
getFileList oFile.Path, FileFilter, fso, list
Next
For Each oFile In BaseFolder.Files
If oFile.Path Like FileFilter Then list.Add oFile.Path
Next
Set getFileList = list
End Function
It works for some strings like month names but for instance for "test" or "bank" doesn't. It says Run-time error 53 File not found on line Name vFile As NewFileName, but the file exists. Sorry for inputting the whole code, but I am unable to pinpoint where might be a problem.

Answer 1

Your problem probably lies in the fact that it is attempting to rename a file inside the loop that no longer exists with that name. Condition the rename by first double-checking to make sure the file still exists.
For Each vFile In fileList
If vFile Like "*" & FindTerm & "*" Then
NewFileName = Replace(vFile, FindTerm, ReplaceTerm)
If Dir$(vFile) <> "" Then
Name vFile As NewFileName
End If
End If
Next vFile
Edit: after additional feedback was provided that the problem is that the replaced string was also found in the path, I suggest the following fix:
For Each vFileSpec In fileList
vPath = Left(vFile, InstrRev(vFileSpec, "\") - 1)
vFile = Mid(vFileSpec, Len(vPath) + 1)
If vFile Like "*" & FindTerm & "*" Then
NewFileName = Replace(vFile, FindTerm, ReplaceTerm)
Name vFileSpec As vPath + "\" + NewFileName
End If
Next vFile
