Actually I don't. I need someone who can say "timmy, this is how you do it!"
Now I thought upgrading my old win 98 box to win xp prof would solve this. and the problem is SO stupid!
When I use any program and ask it to open a file it shows me that wonderful dialogue box with a set of files in it. And they are arranged in any way EXCEPT alphabetically. I like alphabetical. But they aren't. This is with programs. Windows explorer is FINE
So I right click and say "Arrange by name". Sure enough they arrange into alpha order.
Next time I go there, yup, they are all higgledy-piggledy again.
Doesn't matter if I am viewing at list, details, thumbnail, toenail, or what. I get a mish mash. I half think they may be arranged by date modified, but WHY? and why won't Bill Gates let me have them in Alpha order?
I had it with 98. I have it with XP. It's only on one of my machines this happens and I am totally bewildered. It just happened one day and I didn;t do anything to happen it. I want it to unhappen.
This is true unhappen-ness
