.._1.wav

Subject: .._1.wav
etc.

For M-S,  I use a file renamer app and replace
the string, "_1.wav" with  "_M.wav"
and  "_2.wav" with "_S.wav"

The date has proven to be the best way to find
anything.  When my audio apps build the wave
form, the creation dates and times often get
changed. In order to save this info, I take a
screen shot of the creation dates of the files
while they are still on the 722 and name it
something like,  "060912T1_722CreationDates.pdf"
so the info shows up in a search for the files by
date.
