Hi All,

I wish to rename a folder name from ABC to XYZ. Do we have any simple way of renaming it without using any python script?

Hi, you can use a systemcaller transformer and do it by command line.

Hi, you can use a systemcaller transformer and do it by command line.

The syntax is:

REN [drive:][path]SourceMask TargetMask

Example...

ren "D:\tmp\test test\testold" "test new"

...will rename the folder "testold" at the path "D:\tmp\test test\" to "test new"

Thanks for the answer. Can you also provide a solution for renaming bulk folders?
