My photos are arranged by order taken in the folder. The Photo Printing Wizard changes the order to alphabetical by file name when I try to print an index sheet. I want to print by order taken. Can this be done?

=====================================
WindowsXP sorts your files...first by number and
then alphabetically. If you add numbers to your
sorted files...they should print in the correct order.

Example...

0001 Kansas.jpg
0002 Alabama.jpg
0003 Nevada.jpg
0004 California.jpg

If you do not mind changing the file names,
WindowsXP can rename your files for you.
(Hint...make a copy of the folder...and rename
the copies)

Once you have the files sorted...go to...Edit /
Select All...right click the first file and from the
menu...choose...Rename. Enter your choice
for a group name, a space...and the number (1)...
press...Enter.

Example...

Birthday (1).jpg

Windows will complete the series.

Birthday (1).jpg
Birthday (2).jpg
Birthday (3).jpg
Birthday (4).jpg
