Changing Multiple File/Folder Names


Hello all ... I think this topic belongs here.

Does anyone know of an easy way of changing the name of a number of
different files or folders at the same time? For example, I have a CD
Rip (legally obtained of course!!) and the MP3 file names all are in
this format: (band_name)_(album_Title)_(TrackNumber)_(Name_of_t
he_Track).mp3. Can I change the MP3 File names to this format:
(TrackNumber) - (Name of The Track).mp3 without going in to change each
file name individually? I.E., I would like to eliminate the Band & Album
name from the file names, and change the underlines (_) to spaces ( ).
I'd like to do the same to a number fo folder titles at once.

Is that kind of "batch" utility available?

As always, Thanks!!
