Morgiane,

I think you need "XP-style" file ordering, i.e. a consecutive sequence
of digits is treated as numbers and the files are sorted by these
numbers. Actually, on my PC running Windows XP a file sequence like you
describe opens correctly in ImageJ.
You might try the HyperVolume Opener, which is one of the plugins in the
Image5D plugin collection, available from the ImageJ website. I
explicitly implemented this type of file sorting in the plugin, so it
should also work on other operating systems.
