i found information on how to bulk rename file extensions using ms dos here.

but i have a question for programmers.

RENAME [drive:][path][directoryname1 | filename1] [directoryname2 | filename2]

EXAMPLES

Rename all text files to files with .bak extension.

rename *.txt *.bak

does that mean you include the path to the directory you want in the command like

c:\documents\pictures\*.jpg *.bmp

?

I think you have it right. I did a little additional Googling and didn't see anything that contradicted that. So what you type is:

rename c:\documents\pictures\*.jpg *.bmp

yup.

and er-- bulk rename utility doesn't work for you? *surprised*
