How do I rename files that are related.

I have a group of spread sheets that I use as templates. They are saved
under different file names in the same folder. This group of files is then
used on subsequent job orders. I would like to re name the files to the
individual job order numbers so they are more descriptive. When I rename the
files I lose the relationship and the fields in the corresponding files not
not up date.
 
If you mean that you have links between the templates, then open them
all and use File | Save As on each template in turn, giving the
appropriate name that you want. Then go through each in turn and Save
it again (with the new name). Then you can close all the files.

If you need to do this many times, then perhaps you can record a macro
when you do it once, and edit it slightly to enable you to specify the
job order each time. Then just re-run the macro in the future on the
original files.

Hope this helps.
