##I have files read into $output_dir

if ($output_dir =~ "_Modified")
        {
                $allfile2 = $output_dir;  #set allfile2 equal to output_dir to 
keep
output_dir untouched
                $_ = $allfile2;         #set input string equal to allfile2 for
replacement
                s/_Modified//;          #replace _Modified with nothing 
anywhere it
appears in the string
                                #$_ now equals the filename without the 
"_Modified"
                $allfile2 = $_;         #set allfile2 equal to $_
                rename ($output_dir, $allfile2);        #rename the "_Modified" 
files
with the new filenames
                #warn $allfile2;        #shows what allfile2 currently contains
        }


Hope this helps!
