    <pre> Hi Terry and everyone,

    I'm using shareware called iViewMultimedia for very similar purposes. You drop a folder onto the iView Window, and it imports header information for the files plus creates thumbnails for browsing (which you may want to turn of depending on the number of files - slows things down). The gathered data can be exported into a tab / comma
    -delimited text file, which in turn can be re-imported into a db. iViewMultimedia is a free download from the web, at least for the Mac. iViewMultimedia will be distributed with the next version of TOAST.

    Another program which I haven't used, but which supposedly provides similar functionality, is called ACDsee.

    Guenter
