Thankx Žorvaršur, I was thinking of that it must be a sort of 
hyperlinks, but I wasn't aware of that it was possible to play directly 
from within NWP... So that means that it is possible to play 
sound/songs, if a default app is open? - Well then I also understands 
why I get the message "File not found", because it's very seldon I have 
a music app open when I make my music libraries.:-)

I don't have any chosen default app for music. I use various apps like 
VLC, Cog X and a very few times iTunes. Mostly I use VLC since it can 
handle nearly all audio formats - including the RAW Audio format in 
Amadeus Pro which I mostly use, when I'm recording...

When I rip one of my CDs track numberings are automatically added, so no 
need here to add numbers by using "Number List". Some very old CDs don't 
have any kind of tags so no numbers are available and will be played 
just in alphabetically order. In these cases I either let it be without 
numbers or just add them manually.

Do you know whether it is possible to tcxhange the shortcuts so 'Paste' 
will have the COM+V and 'Paste Text Only' will have the COM+SHIFT+V? - 
The COM+V routines are so deep in my 'auto-reactions' [:-)] that it'll 
be hard to get used to a new command..-)

Btw. I've found that the Apache OpenOffice 3.4.x and newer also have the 
same 'problem' like NWP 2.x. In AOO is isnot possible to change the 
shortcut commands without going into the resurce files, and I don't want 
to experiment too much with the AOO, since it's just working great for 
what NWP can't do.

Thanks again!
Cheers, Erik Richard
