When I a copy photo from my hard drive to a CD the "Date Picture Taken"
information is no longer available with the photo. I am using XP. Is there
some way to save this info with the photo?

This information is with the photo file on the CD, but XP will not read it
from the CD. Hopefully this will be corrected at some point.
If you copy this photo file back to your hard drive this information will be
there.

Thank you for your help. I also read the detailed instructions you wrote for
organizing and numbering photos and found it to be extremely useful. Your
work is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the update.
Yes, you can get lost in a hurry in a sea of photo files.
Just share the "recipes" with your friends.
Now, if I can have my daughter adopt some kind of sensible system for the
pictures of my granddaughters I will be happy. This is what I get in
e-mails:
jillianatthebeachsunset.jpg
jillianeatingicecream.jpg
shanonnewhaircut.jpg
How she will ever get these pictures in any kind of sensible order, I have
no idea.
Best regards.

It is inside the photo file. Perhaps the program which displays file

properties does not decode this part of the EXIF data of a CD file.

There is a shareware program. "Picture Information Extractor", which
extracts the EXIF information. It has many useful options, such as a
lossless rotate operation, but the most relevant operation in this
context is an operation to change the OS date/time on picture files to
be the same as the internal EXIF (picture taken) date/time.

Using this, then sorting the directory by date/time, restores order
very effectively.

It can also rename the image files to incorporate the EXIF date in
the filename if your directory display application sorts only by name.
