   Since the folders will be the same name as the files, and both names can   
   not exist in the same folder at the same time, you will have to create a   
   temporary folder, move the file in it, then rename the folder. It is   
   best for this to occur within a single batch.   
      
   First you need to detect the files to be worked with.   
      
      FOR %%f IN (*.txt) DO (    {for example}   
      
   Then you need to create a new folder for each file using a temporary   
   name using something like this.   
      
      MD tempdir.   
      
   Then you use MOVE to move the current file into the temporary folder.   
      
      MOVE "%%f" tempdir   
      
   Then you use REN to rename the temporary folder to the original file   
   name like this.   
      
      REN tempdir "%%f"   
      
   Finally, finish the code with a closing parenthesis and save.   
      
      )   
      
   Hope this helps.
