Solve : Can I add a description to a directory name??

Answer»

Can I add a description or remark to a folder (directory) name to help catagorize dozens of photo folders? I dont want to change the ACTUAL folder names ( i've been using dates for
folder name to this point.BGosse5961 ...... You should be able to do something like this ........

111007_carpics where the date is there and a brief description.
Have you tried right clicking on the folder and using the RENAME option ?

dl65 Why not to rename them like this:
- 07_2007_Las Vegas
- 08_2007_New York
and so on...Thanx dl65 and BRONI for re-naming suggestions.
What I am currently using is , for example:

PT111007 where first 2 CHARS is name of CAMERA (PT=Pentax, 6 digits =date shot)

What I would like is:

PT111007 LasVegas, Street & Night scenes ,107 images, edited

as you can see the descriptor is much too unweildy for a rename ,and also not conducive
to modifications , such as "edited" VS "unedited"

Regards,
BGosse5961There is no limitation to folder name length, so why don't you name it:
PT111007 LasVegas, Street & Night scenes ,107 images, editedQuote from: Broni on November 10, 2007, 04:30:27 PM

Thanks for a reminder...never tried to type in any folder name even that close....LOL

Are you following me?....LOOOOOOOOLThe OP could always put a text file in each folder as well with a description of contents.

(not following...i had to double-back. )
