No problems. I don't think that you can do this filtering by file size though, which is why I asked if you had found a way to make that work. I don't need that myself and Bridge and Windows will both do it. I know that you have another Industrial Strength Digital Asset Management program anyway. I'll be interested to see if anyone else responds on this one to try to answer Ernie's question too.
