In Photoshop, I think the "wrong" error message comes up.
Shangara et al, thanks for easing my mind: if it happens to you blokes, then it's not just me being thick. I have a particular small folder of RAW images that neither PS7 nor CS will let me batch rename! It tells me I cannot "move" them, and screaming at the computer that I don't sodding well want to move anything, just rename the files, doesn't seem to have any effect - obviously my PC has a thick skin. Naturally I've checked that there are no other files with the same name - there couldn't be, since I work to a strict numerical sequence that permits no duplication. If anyone comes up with a solid fix for this I'd love to know. Meantime I'll try your #2 for #1 substitute workaround.
Regards, Tony H
