The P&S Olympus we have uses the date to come up with the frame number, so it is not so difficult to set it, but it is also way to easy to reset it, as I did during our summer vacation last year. I use Breeze downloadPro to download the images to my PC, and it creates a directory with the creation date of the images as the name for the directory. That is why I didn't lose images when I had the double frame numbers with my *ist D. I discovered the double numbering much later when I used a search in ThumbPlusPro 7, and it came up with more results then I expected. -- Frits W�thrich
