windows can change the whole name and put an increasing digit after the
change but my files are increasing order and I only need to change part of
the name and the rest of the name is unique. for example:
I have MAR68370.jpg and MAR68369.jpg and many more and I want to change the
name to 68MAR370.jpg and 68MAR369.jpg. it was simple to do it with xp but I
can't figure out how to do it with windows 7. maybe I need to go to virtual
2000 and do the change? hope someone has a clue... charlie

I use a program called Bulk Rename Utility.

www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk

But how do you do this with XP?

PS : You should test this before :-)

As mentioned by another poster, bulk rename utility is great.
