dos rename
Posted: 03 Jun 2010 06:38
Hi all
I need to rename a number of files. I have a list in excel with the old file name and in the next colomn the new file name.
The rename command is: =CONCATENATE("rename ",I2," """,J2,"""") ...... I2 = 01 HCK01.tif and J2 = Vol 1.tif
When I copy and paste this command into Dos into the correct folder and drive, it says "The syntax of the command is incorrect."
Is this becasue it has a leading '01' at the beginning of the file name? Are there any ways around this?
Please any help would be greatly appreciated..
