This has been driving me crazy for months - Any time that I'm prompted to select a file in the "old style" (i.e. getfile()) windows dialog boxes using Win98, the files and folders are all in an apparently random order.

Actually, there in the order of "least likely to be the file I want".

Does anyone know how to set this so by default it goes to alphabetical order, without having to select alphabetical order each time?

Thanks,

David
