Where is the LIKE button? Larry I totally agree but I would go one step further in my fantasizing: think how wonderful it would be if after all these years and numerous major and minor version updates, LR could actually avoid importing files that have already been imported? Until that happens, I would not trust LR to mirror anything as I would likely wind up with a bunch of duplicate files on both the Main and Backup media. stan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
