Thank you for answering so quickly.

I guess that I am confused. Yes, I am trying to reorder the photos within a 
folder. If that is so what is this "dock" and "undock" feature do. It does 
seem to move a photo.After what you said below I got brave and tried it and 
as long as it was renamed it didn't seem to overwrite the other photos on 
either side of it. 

I then reloaded the page and ran the slide show again and everything seems to 
be where it should be.

No, I'm not moving stuff from one folder to another as I stated above.
Maybe that is what I will have to do. We will see and I will experiment some 
more.
