Hello . Anybody out there using or thinking of using memory sticks for music . I have been doing some tests and at last are showing positive . One problem with files though is that they will register in alphabetical order . This can be solved by renaming with adding numbers on the front . However on doing so I did not work stright off . after about three weeks of head scratching it finally occured to me . Numbers must all have at least 2 digits . Therefore 1 to 9 must be 01 to 09 or what you get is 1'11'12'13'14'15'16'17'18'19'2'20'21 and so on . After a lot of studying I fianlly realsied this tonight . But putting the 0s in fornt of the 1 to 9 solved that problem . Just thought I would mention it .

Not that simple , not in this case . Don't forget things are put in alphabetical order . And where numertal order is concered , on a normal computer file , it will do so just in standered 1 2 3 and so on . But not in the case of Windows Media , Creative Media which I always used , or even on a new DVD that I bought on Monday . Such systems obviously take the first lowest numbers first , thus taking 1 , then straight to the teens . Simple as that . Anyway problem is solved thus I get the tracks to play stright in the order I want them to without having to program to rearagne .
