Rename file knowing the first 7 carachters

Hi, people.

I need some help with this:

i have this file " PROVEDP_???_yyyymmdd " , and i want to rename to this
" IN_PROV_yyyy???.dat " .

The " ??? " is the Month , but the file could be created on April, but the name coulb be March, for example.So i need to grab the 3 caracters

Because the creation of the file is dynamic only i know is the first 8 caracheters " PROVEDP_ " .

Example:

PROVEDP_JAN_20080205 ( this file was created at 20080205 ) i need to convert to IN_PROV_200801.dat

Could someone help me on this ?

Regards,

osramos
