MEDIATAB1.DAT File - How / Why is it created?

[Guest]

I have always been of the impression that when a *.Dat file is created it
appears as MEDIATAB.DAT or MEDIATAB0.DAT, and that file gets replaced / added
to, as time progresses.

The other day we found a MEDIATAB1.DAT file. As the usual default file on
my PC is for MEDIA0TAB0.DAT file, what would have caused this change?

Thoughts / comments apprecited.

Many different programs use .dat files with many different names. Are you
using Windows Movie Maker? What is the OS?

Hi Rock,

Yes it is from Windows Movie Maker. The OS is Windows XP Professional,
v5.1.2600, SP2. Movie Maker is v2.1.4026.0

Ok Helen, I suggest you post to the MovieMaker newsgroup. That's where
you'll find the folks who are most experienced with it.
