letters.I have thousands of songs I copied but it copied them all in capital
letters.It did the same thing to many of my folders.Thanks in
advance.Underline,_ after billyboy. (e-mail address removed) ,or

This may not be any use to you, but in Exel and 1-2-3 (and I presume
other spreadsheets as well) there is a "Proper" function. If you could
paste titles into column A of the sheet, you could compose the formula
in column B: @PROPER(A1) and copy it down the range.

This keeps the initial capital letter but makes the rest of each word
lower case. Alternatively use @LOWER which makes the entire word lower
case.

Finally, copy column B and paste it using the option "Paste formulas as
values" or similar.

I run into stuff like this occasionally and create my own EXE to do
the job. I install AutoItv3 from

http://www.hiddensoft.com/AutoIt3/

once installed, I right click my desktop and choose "New AutoItv3
script". A script appears on my desktop and I right-click it and
choose "edit script". I add these lines to the script...

If $CmdLine[0] = 0 Then Exit
FileMove($CmdLine[1],$CmdLine[1] & ".tmp")
FileMove($CmdLine[1] & ".tmp",StringLower($CmdLine[1]),1)

Now I right-click the saved script and choose "compile script" and the
..au3 turns into an .exe

Now, any file I drag and drop onto the EXE will have it's name changed
to lower case.

If you get more advanced you can create a script that does all the
files in a folder at once...

I could write that for you... if you want to come to
http://www.hiddensoft.com/forum/
and ask for it...

Dead link. Try http://www.hiddensoft.com/AutoIt/ for release version 2
or http://www.hiddensoft.com/autoit3/ for the beta version.

Believe it or not, the address is case-sensitive. (I tried it on Internet
Explorer 6 and two Gecko browsers, K-Meleon and Firefox, both version 0.8x)

Another question: Are there any file renamers with the internal ability to
capitalize according to proper English conventions, or at least that can
be configured to do this? For example, "The Ring of Gyges" instead of "The
Ring Of Gyges."
 
The one I use is a cmdline utility by Ronald Nordberg, called
"Tolow.com". "Tolow converts all long filenames in a directory to
lowercase. Useful for html-file managing. Contains asm,com and a txt
file." Find it at <http://www.karland.com/code/assembler/>.
