' =======================
' This script renames files, as a couple of people have run it and had problems
' I have modified the script to require the user to modify the bEnabled
' variable to true for renaming to actually take place. (Go to Line 42 to enable this script)

Dim bEnabled
Dim fso 'as file system object
Dim nTotalFilesRenamed 'as integer

bEnabled=False '**** Set to false the script will not rename files, change this to true for renaming to take place.
Server.ScriptTimeout=120 'Set the page timeout to 2 mins
Const sStartDirectory="c: emp" '*** This is the starting directory
'Be carefull where you start as this
'script renames any file under this dir
'that contain blanks. ***

'Setup the file system object
