Jack, see the example I gave earlier: (example: A2016-019_02_02043.tif) allows me to see that the collection began in 2016, and the 019 and 02 are categories the museum uses to sort from there. The five digit number is the particular slide's number (the scanner adds the next number to each slide at that point.) If you build a file name that includes all of the pertinent data (as shown) then wherever that file ends up, it ties in with your database and all of the notes that go with it. The computer location (C:/Music/Folk Collection-XYZ/123_Event/) doesn't prevent you from finding C:/Music/Folk Collection-XYZ/123_Event/A2016-019_02_02043.tif.
