Sharon,
Thanks for your suggestion. Sorry I took so long to answer but this web page
has been unavailable.
I think I have cracked my picture dispaly problem. I have a number of
folders nested within one overall folder. The bottom layer of folders can be
set to have four pictures dispalyed by going to
properties/cutomise/default/apply. Any folder layers above the bottom set can
only have one picture on the folder and I can select this picture by going to
properties/customise/select pictre/apply.
Thanks again for your help.
