replacing file names w/o database

[[email protected]]

Hi.

I have about 7,000 files (with temporary file names) that I need to replace with specific file names.

I figure I can match up the temp file names with the needed file names in

access. I'm not sure where to go from there.


I do not have to use a database if there is another way of going about it

but I do not think there is.


Can anyone help me with learning to create a program to replace massive

amounts of file names to unqiue IDs/names?

Hey,

Can you give a concrete example of the change that you need to make?

Access is a database, so I am not sure where the requirement for no database is coming from.

There are a number of classes within the System.IO namespace that will help you with looping through all the files in a directory, and renaming a file. If you explain exactly what it is that you want to do, then I am sure that we can help you out.
