Hello Sonja, That macro worked like a charm to fix my thumbnails problem. Thanks. I still have the file location problem - I'll look into it in more detail and let you know if I find out how to circumvent it. I don't normally grumble, and I am definitely not anti-Microsoft, but, in the immortal words of someone: if it ain't broke, please don't "fix" it! Why hide features that worked perfectly well???? (With apologies - its been a looooong day!)
