Thanks Mike,
   but I am talking about 1,125 files here, and after I moved them to the
new hard drive ( a much larger capacity ) I removed the itty bitty hard drive
from the system. I won't drop names but another juke box system has a really
nice library command, "clear entire library". If media player had a similar
command, then I could use the search for new files command to rebuild the
library by having it search the new hard drive. But alas, I assume no such
goodie exists. Could we add it to the wish list for a later release?
Again, Thanks for the thought.
