Hi,  
I have this problem which is really annoying me.

I have a text file that is generated by a batch file. It basically creates a file list of images in a directory like below, so the exact contents of the text file appear as shown:

```auto
C:\images\fdsfads.jpg
 C:\images\gdsf.jpg
 C:\images\dsfasdfds.jpg
 C:\images\fgsdfgdsf.jpg
 C:\images\dsfgdsgdf.jpg
 C:\images\dsfadsd.jpg
 C:\images\fgfdgsdff.jpg
 C:\images\ghfghrrth.jpg
 C:\images\jhgjhhghjf.jpg

```

Now I would like to make an image gallery that loads those images to the gallery automatically from the text file when the movie is running in macromedia projector. Is there a way of using that raw text, or do I need to make a change to the batch file?

-Many thanks,  
Mike
