sounds to me like anthony doesn't have mpex available, so...
a command file would do what you're asking quite nicely. in
shorthand, the steps would be:
1) listf [whatever],6 > [message file]
2) while not end of [message file]
2a) get [message file] record
2b) extract file name & tack on new group & account
2c) set up rename command & do it
3) clean up
ideally, anthony, you'd want to accept the two file sets as
parameters rather than hard-coding it straight into the file.
