is there anyway to "batch" change a file type on multiple files?

[g222leav]

for example, if you have a bunch of jpg's from your digi-cam i know you can "highlight all" and rename the files (i.e. "b-day pics")

can you do the same "highlight all" to change the file type?

- windows XP -

You mean change the extension of the file? Like from .jpg to .jpe or something?

You can do this from a command prompt -

In a command window, go to the folder with your files, and type:

ren *.jpg *.jpe, substituting whatever extensions you want to change.

then used ren *. *.jpg and it worked!!!
