Thank you for everyones input and sorry for the delay in my response.

Yes, I do agree that I have a mess on my hands. Doing the best I can
with the limited knowledge I have. With that said I don't believe I am
renaming the files twice. I unzip only certain files from the ZIP and
put them in the correct directory. From there I rename them from
emp.dbf to em080325.dbf.

printf("REN c:\\po\test\users\test\\%s\\emp.dbf em%s%02s%02s.dbf\n",
$2,substr(y["YEAR"],3,2),y["MONTH"],y["DAY"])>"C:\\test\\doit.bat"

I then zip and move to another directory. All that works right now.

I took a look at your script T.E.D and please correct me if I
missunderstood what you have. It looks like your code seems to rename
the dbf to yesterdays date. I also undertand you as saying that small
bit of code makes my mess of a code no longer needed. Which part is no
longer needed? I ask because your not unzipping/zipping. Is your code
supposed to fit into a portion of the awk or batch code I already have?
