Hi,
My photos are located in folders and subfolders under the following path :
"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\02 Image partagée".
I would want to keep the Directory name in the file name, so i use, for example : yann # <Directory>.jpg
But the renamming is too long and it does not work because there are the characters "\". The result should be : "yann 1 C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\02 Image partagée\...".
Do you know :
- how can i workaround the "\" character?
- how can i substitute "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\02 Image partagée" to something shorter?
Thanks by advance for your responses.

You can perhaps <Folder name> in batch rename...

Hi,
Thanks for your response but it does not respond exactly to my issue
I would want to have more detailed in the file. For example the folder is : Holidays\Twice\Venice 2005\ file.jpg
So i would want to have something like that : yann 1 holidays Venice 2005.
Is it possible?
How can i do that?
Thanks,
YannG

Sorry currently not possible, but if you have "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Holidays\Twice\Venice 2005\
file.jpg", you want something like that too "yann 1 holidays Venice 2005" ??

When you use <Directory>, '\' is replaced by '-', and you can use Replace field
