[QUOTE="Logan, post: 248278"] yeah with my screenshot copy (above) I can select files (any files) in Finder and right click then go to Automator - "Rename Sequential Files to..." , and it pops up the "Show Action when run" window. I then proceed to tweak settings until it's to my happiness. I'm not sure how dtravis' copy would run (I'm not an expert with automator), but my copy works like a champ.. I can go to any directory select any number of files and run my automator and it grabs my selection and renames it with my above code. *shrugs* Here is a step-by-step I did, I even screwed up on it to show it continues the rename sequence (and fill the gaps of previous renames) [img]http://img317.imageshack.us/img317/6913/1vw3.png[/img] [img]http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/1787/2za3.png[/img] [img]http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/8315/3lj0.png[/img] 8edit* last "after effect" screenshot screwed up and i'm late for work [/QUOTE]
