Renaming songs

[billyo]

i had nothing to do Friday so i decided to renamed some of the songs, some of my songs are in caps, and some are not, and i also noticed that some of my songs has the artist name in the song title and vice versa,so i decided to make them all uniformed and corrected the mis titled songs, i did it by right clicking the songs, and typing the right name etc. when i got done on some of them, i closed MS and re-open it a little later , the only ones that changed was the mis-titled song, the rest stayed the same, is there any way to renamed or edit these besides right clicking..

To the best of my knowledge, Microstudio doesn't rename the original file, it just renames a temporary text file from the original files.
I think to make any permanent changes you would have to rename the original MP3 or other formats file using windows explorer.

If these are files used in Hoster your best bet would be to rename them from the multiples edit option in that program.
Also if you rename a file that you currently use in Hoster it may affect it's use there.
There is a free program for editing bulk file names that I use myself called "Bulk Rename Utility" available here:http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/Main_Intro.php

But do not use it to alter names already imported into Hoster.

thanks for the adviced, no these files are on external drive, that i only use strictly for MS, and it's stationary only for practicing purposes.that 's on separate pc, it's actually the same files that i use on Hoster that is also on ext. drive.but anyway, not a big deal, i just had nothing to do friday..i can leave it the way it is..thanks again..
