Collection Captions & Sequence

I’m still in trouble..doing (or not doing) something rather simple, I suspect?

I’m using Elements 3.

I’ve made a number of collections from 1200 or so pictures. I’ve re- sequenced the pictures (from the order/date/time they were taken and added captions.

When I copy the file/copy them into a new folder (or burn a cd/dvd) in My Pictures (1) the captions do not appear, and (2) the sequence reverts to date/time shot sequence.

What am I doing wrong or what steps do I need to do to save-see the captions and keep the pictures in a new sequence for class presentations and making a cd/dvd?

Any help will be most appreciated.

Ted,

Not sure about Elements 3, but when you copy data files in many other kinds of data management programs you need to copy more than one file for all of the associated data to be copied. Instead of using the copy command, see if Elements 3 has an export command. In these other programs the export command is designed to copy all of these linked files to another location, so if there is such a thing as an export command in Elements 3 it should do what you want.

Charley,

Thanks for the turnaround on my ongoing PA Elements 3 caption/sequence "problem." Yes, PAE3 has the expxort option/I’ve tried it with the first 6 or so pics in the collection..only the first pic shows a caption..all the rest (eg) as PC143768_edited-1.JPG

I have to/want to believe that I’m omitting something (very!) simple. Just what is still a puzzle.

Any additional thoughts (when you have a bit of time) would be appreciated.

Ted
