Comment: How can I rename a file to a file with a secuential number? Always taking the last number + 1 of course.
For example last file in a directory is: c:\COPY\file.019
After executing the batchfile the next file would be named file.020, etc. I hope you can help me. Many Thanks.

Reply: (edit)I think that it can not be done with just a batch file (plaese tell me that Im wrong coz this is a sweet little thing if anyone can do it), So I would say write it in quickbasic (then make EXE) or any other programming tool (I only know basic (VB & a bit of DOSBasic)
I will keep an eye on this ;-)

Reply: (edit)It can be done in batch but the typing is unbelievable.......if you must I will look it up and post the information. Not the bat as I hate typing. May I suggest a super "windose" program.
I think you will like it as it is more flexable than a batch file. Web site : http://www.gene6.com

Reply: (edit)How about something like (it seems to work only under NT: set a=100
for %%b in (%pfad%\save\gen\seperate.*) do set /a a="a+1"
copy %pfad%\in\seperate %pfad%\save\gen\seperate.%a% && del %pfad%
in\seperate
