| Command Line Ren (Rename) command broken? I'm having trouble with the REN command with wild cards as used from the command prompt. For example, in the REN command help, it says: "For example, if you had files that are named smitha.doc, smithb.doc, and smithc.doc, you could use the ren smith*.doc smythe*.doc command. All file names automatically show the new spelling, and are renamed smythea.doc, smytheb.doc, and smythec.doc." If I try the example, exactly as described, I don't end up with smythea.doc, smytheb.doc, and smythec.doc. Instead, when I create three files named smitha.doc, smithb.doc, and smithc.doc and then execute the command: ren smith*.doc smythe*.doc I get: C:\TestREN>ren smith*.doc smythe*.doc A duplicate file name exists, or the file cannot be found. A duplicate file name exists, or the file cannot be found. C:\TestREN>dir Volume in drive C is OS Volume Serial Number is 0A07-21F5 Directory of C:\TestREN 05/17/2008 04:04 PM <DIR> . 05/17/2008 04:04 PM <DIR> .. 05/17/2008 04:03 PM 0 Smithb.doc 05/17/2008 04:03 PM 0 Smithc.doc 05/17/2008 04:03 PM 0 smythe.doc 0 File(s) 0 bytes 2 Dir(s) 48,010,428,416 bytes free C:\TestREN> This isn't how I recall REN working in previous versions of Windows. Anyone know if the REN command has changed or been broken?      |

| Re: Command Line Ren (Rename) command broken? Your test didn't test the same thing. You had 5 character filenames before and after the rename, i.e., the lenght of the filename didn't change. In the case described in help, they renamed 6 character filenames to 7 character filenames. It should have worked as they described, but it didn't. Try the test again, renaming SMITH?.DOC to SMYTHE?.doc. It used to work fine; now it doesn't.

| Re: Command Line Ren (Rename) command broken? You're right, it appears to be an exact character replacement only. It goes the other way as well, if the target name is shorter, the remaining characters on the original are carried over as well, ie: ren test*.docx wor*.docx results in a file name of wort1.docx.
