*All knowledge is contained in Vandom; slight mod from the Science Fiction version. If there's someone who's up on XP command window batch files I'd appreciate a pmail. I want to rename a bunch of files of form XXXX-{number}.jpg, by changing XXXX to YYYY. Unlike Unix, Windows seems to think this is an exotic concept. If you don't already know how to do it, don't bother researching. I can read the book and remember when I used to write batch files. Hmm...I wonder if there's a Bourne shell for Windows. RVC -- there are a number of van pictures in the thousand or so I want to rename. :-) Thanks, David |
