Barbara & Jorge,
I wish you were right. Explorer displays directories and files in the correct alphabetic order! I might be able to live with directories listed in reverse order.. but hunting through the dozens of files displayed in no sequence at all is more than I can bear. Any other thoughts?
Frank



>Extending on what Barbara wrote, seems like someone did a "Like current folder" in Windows Explorer (Folder Options -> View) when a folder with reversed alphabetical order was selected, it can be fixed the same way, just tried it on Windows 2K.

>>VFP's "Open File" dialog (and VB and other applications) comes up with directories in reverse alphabetical order... and no order whatsover when you looking at individual files in a directory. Any ideas on what's wrong or how to fix?
