Multi Renamer

#1 Post by ecoach » 22.07.2008, 17:19

Hi

i have a question: i have files in this format:

1234 filename.ext
3244 filename2.ext
etc

the numbers are not following each other.
I want to change this to:

1234 - filename.ext
3244 - filename.ext

Any help in how getting this done?
Is there a help topic on this batch renamer?

Thanx!

Ray

Try with Search and replace:
Search for: ' '
Replace with: ' - '
Of course you should do not type ' characters.

It works well, try again.
Search for: space
Replace with: space minus space

Hi

indeed it works now thanx!

But i was confused because a) the new filename was not given in the
example, so when i clicked 'Rename' b) it gave an error saying the not
succeeded renames would be shown in red. But when i clicked OK then
the files were succesfully remaned.
Is this the program or me?

Cheers
