I have a image bank of photos. They are namned according a customer nr
like 405632.jpg.

I want to rename all the photos. They are over 3000.

I did a "Send Event" script and it worked! My problem is that I can't
get a filepath in the script. I'm doing something wrong.

My guess so far looks like this:

"cmd /c " & "rename c:\\" & temp::custnr & ".jpg " & "c:\\" &
temp::contractnr & temp::depart & ".jpg"

My archive isn't at c:\ but I test my script against it. Short and
simple ut doesn't work.

If I remove the c:\\ it works if I know which path is used.

Can you please help me?

Thank you for your time.

Generally speaking, photos are individual files like 12345.jpg in a
special (shared) folder.
To change thousand file names on a row I use 'RenameIt.exe', which I
find pretty powerful and handy.

Well that will not work for me.

I have the old names and the new in a filemaker database. I need to
replace the filename completly, not crop it or add new characters.

I usually use this program to rename lots of files:

It was a nice thougth.
