for file in *.sql
do
  mv $file "${file%.sql}.plb"
done

hi vino,
The mv command renames the original file.But i dont want to rename the original file.
I want to the original file(.sql) to be remained and i just want to extract the file name without extension
and append the new extension (.plb) and store that new file name in a variable.
cheers

use cp instead of mv

No man,I dont want the contents.I need onle name of the file.
