What I am trying to do is take all the files in a folder that are of the following specific format and rename the file slightly (add some periods to it). Below are the details<br /> <br /> Input file format<br /> Text with Spaces (01032011).avi<br /> Output file format<br /> Text with Spaces 01.03.2011.avi<br /> <br /> Example:<br /> "Modern Family (01032011).avi" is renamed to "Modern Family 01.03.2011.avi"<br /> <br /> This will need to be done automatically i.e. a windows schedule task can run it every 30 minutes.<br /> <br /> Thanks so much!!<br /> http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/MS-DOS/420762/420762/batch-renaming-script/ Wed, 05 Jan 2011 15:50:07 -0700 MS-DOS
