Need a file renaming .BAT file or DOS command.

[edro]

I have a ton of file that are named IMG0001.jpg through IMG0200.jpg. I need to rename them all to pic1.jpg through pic200.jpg.

Is there an easy way to increment the filenames like that? In DOS? In a BAT file?

Any suggestions?

All that does is change the first 3 letters on the pics to "pic". I need it to increment.....so it goes pic1.jpg then pic2.jpg and so on.

Any other suggestions?

i have used this program for several years =D

i suggest copying some of the files into a separate directory so you can play with the program a little.

there are other renaming utilities out there.
