I am having a bit of a problem figuring out how I can get these photos to go in numeric ascending order. Can anyone tell me what I am missing, not being a programmer (see attached)! Thanks. Jim

Add leading zeros so that all the leading numbers have the same number of digits. (Be sure to plan forward; if you'll have more than 99 photos in an album, you'll eventually need three digits.)
Add spaces after the numbers, before the words.
Edit album > Sort by Title > Ascending.

Thank you. I originally I had three digit numbers as that works in other programs but it wouldn't work. It would go 1,10,11,12,2,2o, etc., or something like that. So I endedup using letters. But the one thing I missed was leaving the space. I thuoght you couldn't leave a space in file names. BUt if it works I'm gonna do it!
Thanks again.

(1) The space is in the title, not necessarily the filename.
(2) The leading zeros are more important than the spaces.
Without zeros: 1, 10, 11, 12, ... 19, 2, 20, ...
With zeros: 001, 002, 003, ... 009, 010, 011, ...
