Dave -
I think you can do what you want in BBPro. Go to <tools> <batch
rename>, then drop down the Style list under Filename Style.
There are three editable custom styles that you can create to set the
filename format using variable codes or a combination of variables and a
fixed entry. For a complete list, hit F1 with the Batch Rename window
open and you'll get the help file for Batch Rename along with a list of
the usable variables. When you edit the style, you can put the
contents, either fixed or variable, in whatever order you want.
You can check if the format is really what you want at the bottom of the
batch rename window, as it shows an example of what the current filename
is and what it will look like after conversion. If it's not what you
want, you can tweak the style a little.
HTH - If you need more specifics, let me know - either on or off list.

If i didi i do not have any replies to this in my storage files.
Any way. When i shoot a horse show i renumber the beginning of the file from
DSC_1234 or
whatr
ever it is,to 038_1234, which now represents the riders id number of that day.
I have been doing this in Explorer, renaming files one at a time.
Any quicker way to do this. I have BBPro and an older copy of AcDc. I think an
older
version of
Ifranview to(all at home not at work. I can only play so much here.LOL)
Can any of these do a decent job at renames like what i need,or do they work
mainly as a
full file
rename say from DSC_1234 to Picture1, Picture2 etc.
I have 300 to doi tonight plus look at a new lawn mower so any stearage in the right
direction before i
go home will be appreciated.
