What do I need to type in the File Filter to reject all files beginning with a certain string, but containing a few characters before the extension? I have aatempted to read and implement some of the examples in the help, but to no avail.
For example, how would I filter...
mickeymo001-1.jpg
mickeymo003-6.jpg etc etc

I think he needs a tag to make it match the beginning of the line. I think it's a charet
"^mickey" should match all filenames starting with Mickey but not match embedded mickeys.
Dexter, jump in here and correct me.

How about that? Another RegEx guy. Yes, that's the way I would do it, too.
