collections-best advice for a movie

[Lori]

I have 90 avi files that I had imported into the collections. When it
imports this, where does it save the collection file? After getting the 90
avi files imported I thought I would combine the avi files to one hard drive
- now I have no collections and have to start over importing. Can I import
multiple avi files at one time? I am going to make highlight videos, so I
need all the files in the collections. Would I be better off using something
like Sony Vegas Movie to do this complex project? Any advice would be
helpful.

===========================================
After moving the files did you see Red Xs in Movie Maker?
Just right click the Red Xs and browse to the new location...
maybe you can re-establish the links.

Maybe the following link will offer some ideas:

Movie Maker 2 -

As mentioned in the article:
"Movie Maker 2 -

here's the path to the
