How Can I Programmatically Rename a File using TestStand?

Primary Software: TestStand
Primary Software Version: 3.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem:
I would like to use TestStand to programmatically rename a file stored somewhere on disk.  How can I do this?

Solution:
One simple solution is to call directly into the Windows command line and pass command line arguments that capitalize upon the rename function.  This function takes as its parameters:

1. The path to the file to be renamed and
   
2. The desired new name of the file.

For example:

/c rename c:\\OriginalName.txt NewName.txt

A sequence demonstrating this process has been attached below.
