Hi Ray, Go check through the AppleScripts for iTunes web site that Doug Adams maintains. You'll certainly be able to find something that will do what you want -- the only question is what the most appropriate one to try would be. I did a Google search on dougscripts track numbers, and it

I have an idea but it is rather geeky and will require some shell scripting and the use of a 3rd party ID3 editor that accepts command line functions. I'm speaking in general terms right now byt what is basically needed is that all your files are consistently named with track numbers in the
