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

?

oh, also. if you want to no have to write the path, go into the directory you want the comman executed in first. Then type the simpler command w/o the path. shoudl work too.
