Update: this does rename such a file (only) if it is in the top directory. However it renames "abcxx.htm" to "index.htmxx", and "abc12.htm" to "index.htm12", etc. Is this a bug? More importanly, is there no way to recursively rename a file pattern?? Was it possible with the deprecated Rename task? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Got a little couch potato?
