renaming files
directory name = /usr/tom/1997
files - ABC_1997_ST1_BCD.SQL BCD_1997_ST1_EFG_SAB.SQL TTT_EBC_1997_ST1_A.SQL sub directory - /usr/tom/1997/jan a) I want to just rename the all files ending with '.SQL' and also its contents in the 1997 directory(excluding subdirectories eg '/usr/tom/1997/jan) like ABC_1997_ST1_BCD.SQL to ABC_1997_ST2_BCD.SQL (also change the any 1997_ST1 TO 1997_ST2 within the file as well) BCD_1997_ST1_EFG_SAB.SQL to BCD_1997_ST2_EFG_SAB.SQL (also change the any 1997_ST1 TO 1997_ST2 within the file as well) TTT_EBC_1997_ST1_A.SQL to TTT_EBC_1997_ST2_A.SQL (also change the any 1997_ST1 TO 1997_ST2 within the file as well) i was able to change the file contents but not the filename.Also the folowing script changes even the subdirectories which i do not want list=`ls` for i in $list do sed -n '/[sS][Tt]1/p' ${i} done

see this
Go to the 1997 directory.
Code:
cd /usr/tom/1997
for i in `find . \( ! -name . -prune \) -name "*.SQL"`
do
fname=$(basename ${i})
sed 's/^\(.*\)_[Ss][Tt]1_\(.*\)$/\1_ST2_\2/g' ${fname} >${fname}.tmp
newfilename=$(echo $fname | sed 's/^\(.*\)_[Ss][Tt]1_\(.*\)$/\1_ST2_\2')
mv ${fname}.tmp $newfilename
rm -f $i
done
