Hi All,

I am facing a problem with batch file renaming. I have a folder containing certain files(no of file is not a constrain). I want to rename the files using bat file and need to create a bat file.

now I want to rename the file names to different names.
Example:
Current name To be renamed
1.txt abc.txt
2.doc def.doc
3.mp3 xyz.mp3

I want to put both the names('current name' and 'To be renamed') in the same txt file. Now my question is in which format I should put those name and how do I create the bat file which can take the input from the txt file and rename all my files.

Please let me know if you need any other information and please help me.
