Using Scrapbook under View on the toolbar you can print a picture list,
either for specific individuals or everyone.
For renaming files, just about anything will do it. Look into any of
the graphics programs you already have. If not, FastStone is free and
will do it. Warning though - if you have any IPTC info embedded in your
photos, some programs (FastStone for instance) do not recognize it and
will delete it during other processes, possibly here when renaming.
Test it first on a single photo. Adobe Elements, if you have it, will
do batch renames. ACDSee Pro 2 Photo Manager has the best
batch-processing options of anything I've seen.

Thanks Ron,
Is there a way to get a list of what pictures are linked to what individual?
With a list, I would then know who to go to to correct the link after the
graphic file name has been changed.
Also, is there a utility that could change file names in bulk and replace
spaces with underlines or hyphens?
With almost 4,000 multi-media files this will be a major chore any way I do
it and any advice would be appreciated.
By the way, visited your website and downloaded the PM timeline. Enjoyed the
site, and thanks for the timeline.

Art,
If I remember correctly, in a previous email you mentioned the creation of
webpages. If you are not already aware, file names, including pictures,
should not include spaces as they may not work on the web. Brackets should
be OK but it would be better to use an underscore or a hyphen. This is not
to detract from Leo's response which is fine.
