Renaming Files in WinXP - Changing Default

Hi all,

You know how you can rename multiple files in Windows XP at the same time by selecting all the files you want to rename and hitting F2 to rename the first one? Well when you hit Enter after this, the files are renamed as follows: filename(1).ext, filename(2).ext, etc.

Is there any way to modify this behavior such that the files are renamed filename_1.ext, filename_2.ext and so on?

Add the Underscore to the new file name would result in Filename_(1)
