Is there a way to generate a column of sequenced numbers in the media bins (001-100 or such like), say like you would in a spread sheet. Im trying to carry out customers instructions and they have taken the number the camera shows, so clip 01, 02 etc rather than the file name. Sort of as Ive added below freehand. Its gets a bit tedious counting the rows all the time.

I just wrote an Automation Blocks script, which adds numbers to the names of the selected project items:

Just install Automation Blocks (it works also with the time-limited, free trial), load the attached xml script into Automation Blocks and then run it.

 

If you wonder how the block script is working exactly, here is an explanation:

I also add the tool to the Automation Blocks Community Library now.

... and if you want to get rid of the numbers any time later, here is a tool, which removes all numbers from the beginning of all selected project item names:
