Slideshow (save slideshow as EXE/SCR or burn it to CD)
http://irfanview.tuwien.ac.at/

Did burn it and that was the problem - even irfanview shows the slides in
whatever order they are displayed in the folder.

My problem is that when the cd is opened, the default view is list in
alphabetical order.

Have used irfanview and it is great.

It's free.

Thanks for the reply.

Added comment:

Slideshow shows the slides in the order shown on the screen - I have
rearanged the slides (in the order I want to show them) in the folder on
the screen.

They will stay in that order until I click on view and reorder them in
some other order (size, type, etc.) then reorder them in name order.
Until then they stay in my 'unsorted' order.

Slideshow now displays them in THAT (my chosen) order, not in sorted
order.

The reason for the question is that I burned a CD of the files in the
reordered order and want to show the slideshow CD on another computer
without having to rearange the slides in the screen on that computer.

BTW there are over 200 slides in the show.

Windows Slideshow shows the files using the sort order (sort by name).

Change the names of the files.

Example, original file names...
abc.jpg
def.jpg
ghi.jpg
jkl.jpg
mno.jpg

Rename to...
2abc.jpg
4def.jpg
3ghi.jpg
5jkl.jpg
1mno.jpg

Then the files will display 1,2,3,4,5.

Or use another program like IrfanView, that has more Slideshow options..

Is there any way when I open a folder, to view the list of files in the
ACTUAL order tht they are stored in the folder?

For example, I have stored files (digital slides) named 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
into a folder, (I put the files into the folder in this order:
5,1,3,2,4) and want to see them listed in the order stored for a
slideshow.

The slides must be displayed in the order I want not in a 'sorted'
order. I do not see ' unsorted' as a choice in the view menu.
