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.
