Hey..thanks..this worked like a charm! Even easier than the program to do the batch rename stuff... but..that does a lot more..and probably more than I need...lol! Looks like it could be dangerous... Thank God I own Go Back..haha! Any way..that simple batch file worked... and I appreciate it. It does it so fast..and when it stops (which I did not know it even ran it was so fast.. did 235 in like a half second....) it says Hi is not a valid command.... But, I decided to leave it alone.... Thanks for your help. It seems now that Super Blade Pro can use the preset..but still it has to be opened and saved in order for the preview to show...ugghhhhhhhhhh! grrrrrrrrrr! I have thousands and thousands of them... poor fingers.....

I want to change them all to .q5q extensions so they will work in Super Blade Pro. These can be done one by one..and just this file extension change will = make the .q5q file seen in Super Blade Pro. Does anyone know how to do this in a batch mode? I have thousands of them.. If I could do one folder at a time even... I would only have to do it maybe 100 times? Beats thousands of times..... Any ideas? Are there any programs that do this?
