1.	Solve : Renaming MS Word Documents thru batch files..?
Answer» Can somebody write a batch file to rename MS Word documents. SAY my files are NAMED as 543MTS.doc, 544MTS.doc, etc (nearly 100 word files). I want to rename all my files to 543MTS19012007, 544MTS19012007. I hav nearly 100 documents in a folder like this...Can a batch file be created to rename all my files or can somebody create a batch file to rename all my files...And the important thing is I am not a programmer, let ur ans. be BRIEF.....This question seems strangely familiar. Oh well, onward and upward. Code: [Select]set today=%date:~10,4%%date:~4,2%%date:~7,2% for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%i in ('dir /b ???MTS.doc') do ( echo "%%i" "%%i%today%" ) This snippet will simply list the changes to be made. One your satisfied, replace echo with ren. Note: you MAY have to change the today variable to your localized date format. Good LUCK. 8-)
