naming files

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Yes, highlight all the files you want to rename. Rightclick the first one and
click Rename. Type in your choice and press Enter. Now all the files will
have
that name, the first one will be your choice plus (1), second your choice
plus (2),
and so on. It will number all of them with the same name and have the number
in sequence behind it. You cannot give them different names, the only way to
do that is one at a time.
P.S. To highlight files one at a time, hold down the Ctrl key and click them.
To highlight an entire directory, click the first file, then hold
down the
Shift key and click the last one, all files in between will be
highlighted.
