Hello.
I know that this issue doesn't belong to this group but i cannot find where
i can put the following question:

I'm trying to create a batch file for renaming files. This new filename
should include the system date.
Can anyone help me on this question or point me to another group that is
more apropriate?

Thanks

Luis
 
I'm trying to create a batch file for renaming files. This new
filename should include the system date.

What platform are you using?

In Access, you should be able to use a combination of
Dir(), Format(Date(),"") and Name to rename the files.

In a VBScript script, you could do the whole thing with the
FileSystemObject.

It's probably possible to do it in a DOS batch file but not
straightforward.

Most applications like decent text editors will handle batch file
operations which may or may not be script-able.
Can anyone help me on this question or point me to another group that
is more apropriate?

Not without more information...
