Using FMP 7.0v3 on Mac OSX.4.2 and linking mp3 file via insert Quicktime in container. Everything works great as long as the source mp3 file is in the same folder as my FMP file. Very Cool!!! Question is... how do I see the file path of the linked mp3. I tried indexing the container to see if the path would show...didn't think so...

I need to see what file is linked to the container field so I can track down duplicates or ommisions. Help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Here's what I am doing now. Is there a better way?

Click on the container field.
Export Field Contents (Right Click, Control Click, or Edit-Export Field Contents).
When the SAVE Dialog box appears, the filename is highlighted.
Copy the filename then cancel the SAVE.
Paste the filename into the “MP3 Filename” Field.
