tagging and renaming filenames in win7 issue
Hi everyone, i need to replace a portion of a filename in a folder. You probably won;t be familiar with the app "sage converter" for Stylus RMX, but i am hitting a file length problem during the process (please see attached image).
I have a solution, but I need you to suggest a method/windows-dos app which would facilitate the following:
One of the many files(of which there are hundreds-otherwise i would do it manually) which is causing me a problem is the one listed :"FL_DubbedGtr+Dubbed_60BPM_AMAJ_06.rx2". All the files i wish to rename and shorten will have the same portion of text within each filename,e.g. "FL_DubbedGtr+Dubbed". I wish to search throughout a folder in Windows Explorer and replace that phrase with "Dgtr". This will reduce the length of all the filenames to a size which my app, "sage convertor" can handle.
So, My question is, is there a way to search and replace partial phrases in all filenames in a folder, or can you suggest a method by which i can achieve this?
Thank you for looking.
