I would very much like to see Jenny Benson's filing structure if she doesn't mind posting it.

I have started using "_" underscore for spaces i.e. between first and last name and middle name and a dash between fields. Not sure why but it seams right. Doe_John_B-Obituary.pdf. I am still working out how and where to put the word Obituary and if i want to include the RIN and how. Your 2nd question about if you attach an image to Legacy then reorginize the file structure or names is a key Legacy question and one reason I have NOT attached any source files to Legacy except for testing. If you move an image Legacy can't find it and will just complain. If Legacy had a feature to move or at Least let you rename a file that Legacy was linked to and you did the move/rename inside Legacy then you would not have your links messed up. Nice feature but I am sure it is not on the top of the Legacy Developer's list of features to even consider. For those wondering for a naming standard I am leaning to a variation of something Jenny M Benson was doing. Off line she offered to send me more details and filing structure once she had it all together. I am sure she would be happy to off list forward to others as interested. Even on list if others would not complain.
