Renaming Files

You can use the RENAME command to change the name of

a file or group of files on the same disk and directory. For

example, to rename a file named PROSPECT (in the current

directory) to CLIENT, type the following and press Enter:

RENAME PROSPECT CLIENT

You can shorten the RENAME command to REN. For example,

to change the name of a file from HAMMERS to WRENCHES,

you can type the following and press Enter:

REN HAMMERS WRENCHES

You can use wildcards to rename groups of files. For example, to

change the extensions of all files on drive C with the extension

.NEW from .NEW to .OLD, type the following and press Enter:

REN C:*.NEW *.OLD

To add the extension .OLD to all files that begin with the same

characters, MEMO, but end with one varying character, type

the following and press Enter:

REN MEMO? MEMO?.OLD

This command renames files such as MEMO1 and MEMO2 to

MEMO1 .OLD and MEMO2.OLD.

See your MS-DOS Reference Manual for more information on

the RENAME command.
