" Not with CL"
Can you explain why you can't do this in CL?

Hello Duane,

Is there a way to have a cl check the folder and if there is a file that starts with %BMOCOM then rename it to CLRBMO.TXT
Not with CL but with qsh, you can pick up the first filename and rename like this:
cd /path/in/ifs; mv `ls -1 '%BMOCOM'* |head -1` CLRBMO.TXT
Please note that in the example above the backticks are essential. These are in function like braces in mathematics: The expression within will be evaluated first and replaced by the evaluated value.
My Example is very crude because,
- it doesn't check if the destination file already exists and blindly overwrites,
- it takes only the first file (to suppress errors if multiple files with a similar name exist).
Pack this into a qsh call and it will do what you need.
(Tested successfully in qsh V4R5 :-) )
