xPloit 0 Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) I have a folder with 1163 pictures in it and I want all of them renamed numerically. (Starting at 1 and going to 1163) I know that there is no FileRename() function, so I have to use FileMove() However, this only does 1 file at a time...so rather than me having to hit F5 1163 times, I was hoping there was some way to make it do all the files... my code is: Global $Num = Random(0,1163,1) While 1 FileMove("C:\Users\Justin\Desktop\Folder\*.jpg","C:\Users\Justin\Desktop\Folder\" & $Num & ".jpg") WEnd It works, but only one 1 file at a time...how do I make it rename all the files at once?

enaiman 16 Posted October 8, 2010 See the example under FileFindNextFile from Help. SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example scriptwannabe "Unbeatable" Tic-Tac-ToePaper-Scissor-Rock ... try to beat it anyway :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiff59 54 Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) If you were going to globally insert/append the same string onto all the target files, like sticking ".bak" on the end of the filenames, you could do it in one fell swoop. But, since you're specifying a different name for each file, you have to go one-at-a-time. Something like: #include <File.au3> Global Const $Path = "C:\Users\Justin\Desktop\Folder\" Global $Array = _FileListToArray($Path, "*.jpg", 1) For $x = 1 to $Array[0] FileMove($Path & $Array[$x], $Path & $x & ".jpg") Next edit: typo Edited October 8, 2010 by Spiff59 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stick it in a loop, and increment the loop counter ($num) from 1 to 1163. Pseudo code: For $Num = 1 to 1163 Rename Next $Num Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
