Renaming part of a text file ?

I have several files that are named like this "DotP_D14 - Verkn�pfung"

They all have the " - Verkn�pfung" in common.

I'd like to rename all of them to get rid of that last part.

Is this possible with DOS on windows ?

I'd consider powershell - it works from a command line call. It is part of Windows from late Windows XP on. Note: the learning curve is kinda steep unless you are already a .NET programmer.
