Hi Marie
I thought of this as well. I understand that I can also embed this info
into the wav file itself instead of having a .MRK file. I suggested this
option from the start since wavelab is my primary working environment
but this means putting a copy of Wavelab on every computer and it's not
something they will do. I need something more generic.
