Chris, You should try next time to burn mountable "images" of cds or virtualCDs.
Look it up, it's great. Built in Nero, VirtualCD, the was an alladyn tools and an even better shareware in my macos times - macImage or something. Others like ultraIso, winIso, etc, etc, etc do the same for different prices and features. Eventually a ramdisk if you can lock the write access can do the job even faster too. The sorting issue seems bizarre indeed! cheers Xav > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Chris Carroll-Davis > Sent: Friday, May 06, 2005 12:40 > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Folder list order > > Hello folks - > > just thought you might like to know about a weird issue I > came across the other day.
