How can I arrange the sequential indexing of pics in windows 7

When importing pics into a Windows XP folder. It helpfully followed the sequential indexing already in the folder. My folder was named 'Camera stuff' and the pics were named and indexed as 'Stuff 1, Stuff 2, Stuff 3' etc. I didnt have to add the number or the name myself it just worked out that the next one (as an example to the above) would be 'Stuff 4'. That way I didnt have to search for recent pics . They were always the last in.

But how can I make Windows 7 do the same if it's possible. Nothing I've tried so far with the 'tags' works out the same.

Thanks

If you import the pics into a new folder then highlight all pictures you can simply rename sequentially by right clicking the first image and then rename it to something like stuff01.jpg - press Enter and the remaining pictures will be renamed in sequential order.

Wow! Never knew that was possible. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Callender. But the next time I import into the same folder will the new pic be added sequentially after the last without my repeating the steps you list above?
