31949	2002-01-19 23:22:00	After downloading photographs from my Digital Camera I sent them attached to an email to friends. After sending them I discovered they had copied themselves in My Pictures. When I tried to delete the copies several at a time it then made more copies etc etc etc. We ended up deleting them one by one, a very painstaking effort especially as we had hundreds of copies by then. Would be grateful for any help. Thanks	Guest (0)

If you only want selected items removed, hold down the ctl key and go a little slower maybe, if there is a single block you want to delete, hold down the shift key instead, select the top one, select the bottom one and that should highlight all between and delete as normal	Guest (0)

All the photos inbetween shoul now be selected. Right click and then select delete from the popup menu. Hope this helps.	Guest (0)
