short answer:

make an "open" action, "batch" that action to a folder containing your files, tada! files will open in the order they are name




long answer:

1 - make a file called "for_open_action.psd" or .jpg or whatever, and save it anywhere that wont accidentally get 'trashed" and "emptied"

2 - create an new "action' from the "actions panel" and name it "open" for convenience

3 - while it is "recording" go "file/open" and find the file you made in step 1

4 - put all the alphanumerically named files (and nothing but) in a folder of their own

5 - go to "file/automate/batch...", in the dialog box set "action" to "open", then "folder/choose..." to the folder you made in step 4 then "destination" to "none"

6 - hit "ok"

all the files will open in the order they are currently named, not the order they used to be named, nor in the order they were created, nor in order they were last saved in, nor in some other useless random order photoshop seems to open them in

PS, yes the file you created in step 1 will also be open, but that is easy to close that one file, small price to pay for the control you now have with the above "action", fun times

Can Flash 8 open and edit Photoshop files?

No. Macromedia Flash 8.0 can't open and edit Photoshop files (that is, files with extension ".psd"). But it can import that kind of files. The result is a "flattened" bitmap object in the stage (File>Import>Import to Stage...) or in the library (File>Import>Import to Library...). However, in most cases is preferable convert the Photoshop file in a JPG image file before import it in Flash.
