trunker3 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I have just started to scan my own photograph collection from slides and negs and Windows live photo gallery will not let me file them in loco number order. I am a newcomer to digital imageing so am I doing something wrong or is that how it is? Many thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relaxinghobby Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Rename each file with the loco number at the start of the file name e.g. 45678CityofStDavid12July1927 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was putting the number in the wrong place. Please colour me embarrassed!. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted June 28, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 28, 2012 No need to feel stupid - it's a perfectly valid question. As mentioned if you change the file name to the loco number (it can be just the loco number or the number can come before something else but to sort by number that number must come first) then select the "Sort by" or "View" option appropriate to your system you should find that does the trick.

RMweb Premium BR60103 Posted June 29, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 29, 2012 Also, the first digit will sort first. 9VoR will sort between 89901 and 92000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
