Guest JohnF Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 It seems that when I browsed files the folder would have them in alphabetical order. Now they are to jumbled and I have to specify I want to see them in alphabetical order. and if I'm selecting several files I have to keep specifying. Is there a way to set this so that the files are always in alphabetical order in the folder? Thanks John

Click on the "Name" header of the listview. This toggles sorting of the filenames either ascending or descending order. Now click on "Tools" menu > Folder Options > View. Click "Apply to all folders" button. (c: Mark
