Downloading pictures to a CD

J

My concern is similar to one posted recently by Kate. I have spent hours
arranging hundreds of wedding photos into a file. I arranged them and
downloaded them onto a CD. When I viewed them on a computer, they appeared
in the same order as in the XP picture file. When I popped them into a DVD,
they appeared in random order. I went back to the picture file and labeled
them by numbers 1-180. Again, no problem when viewing on a computer, but
again random when popped into a DVD. It is very disconcerting to have the
pictures of the rehearsal dinner show up before the cutting of the cake!
Help! How can I get the pictures to show up on the DVD in the same order
they show up on the computer?

Try numbering the files as follows.
