      Hi there,
      I’ve got a pretty ragged situation here.

      I need to be able to place a few hundred photos, but to have them appear (when I Grab a few dozen at once) in reverse alphabetical order.

      We have basically a yearbook with about 340 photos,
      with name/info text flowed from box 1 – 340 below each photo
      This way I can see the photo name on the links list, and match it with the photo info in the box.

      However

      The folder containing the photos is NOT associated with the list of names – and the name list is inaccurate – that is, therea re more names on the list than there are photos in the photo folder.
      To ensure that my photos End on the bottom right corner of page 8, I want to place handfulls of photos in reverse alphabetical order. That way when I encounter a photobox with a name that does not have a photo, I can erase that name and erase one photo box from the beginning of the section, causing the name/info text to flow to the correct one, and ensuring I dont’ have to go back and move photos around.

      Any idea how I can do this? Reverse alphabetical photo placing, when I try to place multiple files at once.
