It's on page 1172 of the manual. There's a little gray sidebar with
the instructions there. Unfortunately, it's not searchable text
because the sidebar is a graphic.

Some of you may recall my uncertainty regarding going digital because
of the file structure. I had/have a terrific filing system for all my
slides. I realized that I could copy that system for use in
directories. Well, a funny thing happened along the way. I didn't.
Sure, it is to some extent, but what have done is sucked in the images
and filed them by date. The directory is named by date and a
descriptor. Does it work? Not really. I wish I would have stayed
disciplined and organized them properly all along. The stuff I DID do
it properly--those are easy. But in reality, my situation with the
digital files is identical to that with my sheets of negatives. I have
never found a filing system that works there.
I'm puzzled by something. Isn't hell and half of Georgia redundant?
