I'm sorry - I'm being my usual self: obscure.

If I load a Pz3 scene that I created in Poser 7 into Poser 8 that has a Victoria 4 figure in it and save that scene in Poser 8, then try to open that scene in Poser 7, and then select the Victoria 4 figure and go into the material room, under the Victoria 4 Object, the Materials list no longer has the InnerMouth, Teeth, etc at the top. Instead, it starts with SkinHip, lists a few skin materials, then something else, the face/lips/nostrils are together there somewhere in the middle, and so on. Not the order they started off with at all.

So, I end up spending a lot of time looking for the Eyebrows material and the Eyelashes material - they're all higgledy-piggledy all over the place.

If the re-ordering were done based on the 1_, 2_ etc prefix, then at least it would kinda make sense, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I hope I kinda made more sense this time.
