I do what Noel does when I work in SONAR.

I haven't found it necessary to do so in BIAB (yet) because I take files into SONAR for 'finishing'. However, in BIAB, I have tons of folders under two main folders, for Originals and Arrangements (in other words, whether I wrote it or not). Then under Arrangements, there are lots of folders for the work of colleagues and the work for clients. Under Originals, there are folders for Working On This, Finished but Unrecorded, and each CD project I've done. Stuff like that.

One thing you learn in this business (or any business) is that good filing systems are critical, along with good backup regimens.
