I like your program - only been using it for a couple of days but already indexed loads of CD's. Are you accepting comments with regrds to upgrades?

A few things I'd like to see improved. 1. Eject CD when catalogued. 2. Allow user to select a group of files and edit category/Drive Status/Comment. 3. After editing a catalogue - close window automatically. 4. Allow export (of ticked catalogues)to a standard MS Access 97 files or at least to a comma seperated file. 5. Sorting requires a fix (or autonaming funtion). Sorted data reads 1,10-19,2,30 etc - auto naming could include a mask such as OCDDB#### allowing for zeros 0001, 0002, etc.

Thanks for the program - when I get a job I'll try and send a little something. I realise that this sort of program can take some time to oput together - I hope you enjoyed doing it.

Hey Paul. Yes I do accept comments, but developing is a bit slow at the moment. Some reflections:

1. Good idea, it's on my list of things to do.

2. Yep, good. You can already change status & category that way.

3. Well, opionally perhaps.

4. I'm developing support for standard database format. This has taken me several months, and it is not yet finished.

5. Also on my list.

I did enjoy doing the programming, but nowardays time is short. Regretably. Thanks for your comments.
