Hi dseaman,
It sounds like you're building a playlist. I suggest using a Listbox. You
can find it under 'List & Table' of your control tool pallette. You can
enter the actual names of the files in this Listbox and then select as
many of them as you like. The output will be an array (depending upon how
you configure it) of I32 values based your selection(s). Pass the array
data to your loop structure to run all the AVI's selected.
If you want to vary the order of each item (run 5 before 2), it may be
easier to user an array of enumerators or ringlists.
