I need to rename each filename to a specific standard. I have created a text file that has the exported filename in one column and what the filename should be renamed to in another column. Is there a way to write a script that can use the text file to lookup the old name and rename it to the new name? <a href="http://www.ulfwood.net/RenameFiles/FileRenamer.aspx" rel="nofollow">Rename Files</a> Hello,
