I've never really needed to import sequences before, and I'm a bit =
confused on how to handle importing a sequence of stills that are in =
order numerically but the numbering itself is not contiguous (i.e., we =
had to delete some of the in-between frames).

These are a series of animation shots --  in one example, 360 frames =
total in a folder and I need to import 14 of them as one particular =
scene and shot.

It appears I cannot select a sub-set of the files in a folder for import =
as a sequence and force alphabetical order. It always wants to import =
the whole folder of files as the sequence in spite of my selection. Do I =
have to place each specific scene and shot in its own folder to be able =
to force alphabetical order? Or what am I missing here?

If the online help talks specifically about this I've missed it.

Thanks much,

James
