Some nice discussions. I agree with many, they can be confusing and never use the codes when posting. I have been trying to learn them for over a year now. Will have to check out Bruce Bowmans six codes. HOWEVER the four codes I have adopted in naming files for video which I shoot. It helps keep the file names consistent and not too long when burning them to DVD for storage. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
