xjvs001 xjvs001 Just in Town Registered: 2017-02-04 Posts: 1 Loc: Florida	I'm looking to bulk rename files with a shorter name. I'd like to replace the first six characters with four new ones Example Ren 45_9_1. 0900. If I use a batch file I end up with 0900_1 Thank you in advance for any help!

Code: for each $file in dirplus(@scriptdir) $newfilename="0900" + right($file.name,-6) ? $newfilename next You will need dirplus to make this work...
