    Default Batch Processing not available???

    Hi all,

    I'm using a trial version of FW and wanted to try out the batch processing functionality. I went through the wizard to simply scale a few photos to 25% of their original size. When i got to the last screen that asks where you want the new files saved, the "batch" button was shaded gray and wouldn't allow me to click on it. I had no errors or pop-ups, and can't think what i'm doing wrong. Is it possible that this function is disabled in the trial version??? I thought it was a full version trial?

    Thanks!

    The function is not disabled MH.

    You have either not selected any files to Batch Process or there aren't
    any open files that you have selected for Batch Processing.
    Please make sure you are selecting files and then click the Add or Add
    all button. If you do not do this the Batch button will stay shaded and
    you cannot continue.

    Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately i don't have FW on the computer i'm on now, so i can't try out your suggestion. However, i'm fairly certain i clicked "add" ... its the only way to move to the next screen of the wizard, isn't it? Do the files have to be OPEN before i add them?

    You can click Next even if the Add button hasn't been clicked. The files
    need not be open.
