The default file name for a new file in SF5.0 is "Sound1...Sound2...etc. Is there any way to reset the number assigned to "01" or "001" like SF4.5?

As it is now, the files don't sort properly in a list (sound2 sorts after sound10-19). If the user can't set it, it needs to be fixed in a bug fix update.

It would also be nice to be able to set the word used for the default (possibly as part of the "New" dialog box). That way you could automatically save files with the project or client name.

There's no way to change the name of the recorded file before you begin recording. After you've recorded into Sound Forge, you'll have to save the file before you close the program, and the file name can be changed when you save it.

I realize you can rename it when you close it, but the user shouldn't have to remember to do that for the first 10 files recorded. Please fix the sequence numbering to use a leading zero for the single digits. This will at least make the first 99 files sort correctly.
