          Just to let everyone know I created a renamer for gb64 v15. It is also compatible with other versions and other gamebases. Here it is, it is a simple batch file, created through the database and a spreadsheet. [https://mega.nz/#F!cjBFwIQL!TCjFtUUEjdltJ3mmECPONg](link url)

          Instructions on how to convert to other gamebases.

          1. Open Database file (in this case it was C:\GameBase\GBC_v15\GBC_v15.mdb)

          2. Open the Attached spreadsheet file

          3. Copy Full Row of GA_ID, NAME, and Filename from Database to spreadsheet

          4. The rest should be automatic, unless there is more than 25,000 entries. In that case you will need to copy d2-F2 to d250001 - D ?? ??=to wherever file list ends

          5. On first line of new text file type the path to the games for instance C:\GB64

          6. Copy Row D to new text file

          7. Save text file as "Name of gamebase renamer.bat"

          8. run new text file

          9. optional: add Pause at the end of the batch file

          10. Optional: Column E shows number of special characters (this mainly finds the letters with tildies and appostrophies)
