Wayne, Something is wrong with the import sequence. I copied and renamed
first two dicom files (09752176 and 09752197) in a directory so that there
will be an additional two files (09769678 and 09769679) after the last file
(09769677) in the same directory. When I use Import>Image Sequence, the two
additional files (09769678 and 09769679) appear just after the first
(09752176) and third image (09752197) in the sequence. Is there any
particular reason this thing is happening?

Hi
Thanks for explaining.  So I tried to fix it by creating 2 substacks and
then adding them back together in the right order but I'm not sure how to do
it.  Is there away of adding the two new stack together so that the images
are reordered ?

Thanks
Anna
