One way it could be done, if you are using a macro to open each of the
different images in a series, would be to use the print command to enter the
opened file specification in a log window which can be saved or exported.
For example, if you have 10 images, image1, image2, ... , image10 where n =
the image number, filename = ³image² and filepath = ³the directory path to
that file²
open(filepath+filename+n);  will open the file and
Print(filepath+filename+n);  will write that information to a log window.
