>>>2) Any ideas on how to Rename a group of files with the same prefix (like rename myfile.* to oldfile.*). Again, File Manager does this but Win 95 Explorer??

I don't like it much, either, but I'm being forced to use it now...We are moving to long file names, and you know what happens to them with File Manager...In essence, my gripe is that I lose edit control over file manipulation like move,copy,delete,etc...that's what I'm looking for.

Believe me, I'm being dragged kicking & screaming into the new world of Win 95 Explorer!
