In Nero 5 I could select the wav files in Windows Explorer that had
been sorted in date/time-stamp order and drop them into the Nero 5
compilation window and it would retain the sort order by date and
time. When I perform the same action with Nero 7, it reorganizes the
songs into alphabetical order. This forces me to manually reorganize
the song order back to the correct order.
I have looked at all the Nero settings and help files with no success
at changing this frustrating behavior. Yes, I could include the track
number in the song name so that the order stays the same, but then the
output panel on my CD player already shows the track number. By
putting it in the song name, it makes it appear twice on the display.
Does anyone know how to change Nero 7's default behavior?

On the outside chance anyone cares what the solution to the above
problem is, I fianlly have an answer. Instead of dragging and dropping
the files from Windows Explorer into Nero's compilation window, I
found that by right clicking the compilation window and using Nero's
"Add Files" dialog box I can sort and select the files by their time
stamp and Nero will retain the selected file order. I discovered this
solution on my own by accident.
