| | Rename Photos I am running Vista Home Premium. I am trying to rename a group of .jpg photos. I expected it to work like XP. I drag the photos into the order that I want them, highlight all of the photos, right click on the first one and rename it Photo (1).jpg It seems to work differently every time I do it. I highlighted 3 photos and rename them to be: pp (7).jpg. I expected pp(7).jpg. pp (8).jpg, pp (9).jpg. What I got was pp(7), pp(2), pp(3) I have no idea what is going on. What am I doing wrong? -- C and A Bredt |

| | Re: Rename Photos From a little experiment here, it looks like it only works if you rename to pp.jpg or pp (1).jpg ie beginning at 1. Otherwise it appears to 'fill in the gaps' -- Jon "C and A Bredt" <abredt_at-delete-this@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:u9pxtKuQJHA.4760@xxxxxx Quote: > "C and A Bredt" <abredt_at-delete-this@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:uldAkktQJHA.1172@xxxxxx Quote: >>I am running Vista Home Premium.
