Default Renaming Files

Anyone have a method for looping through a folder and renaming a file based on
a criteria.

I don't necessarily need the dir loop. But how do you rename something, much
less based on a criteria? Use a .filesearch object

For example, say I have things called October Report.doc, October Sales.xls.
October Song.mp3

I don't want to open them just rename the files from Oct to Nov Report.doc,
October Sales.xls, etc

I just want to replace part of the name based on a search criteria. Possible?
