You can change the order they appear in Windows Explorer or in any of the
Open or Save dialog boxes. Just click on the Date header. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "photos" wrote in message ...

These file names would automatically sort your files for you. Having said that, you can define the sort order in Windows Explorer by setting the View Mode to Details. You will be presented with columns of information, the contents of that information will be listed at the top of each column. You can Right Click the column headings and select the information you want to be shown, and you can move the columns around so they are in any order you want -- select the MORE option to move the columns around. Once you have defined the columns to be displayed and set their order, click OK. With the columns you want to be displayed, all you do is click the Column Heading to sort by that column. |

You can experiment with what I said earlier right here in your newsreader. Notice that at the top of each column are headings, SUBJECT, FROM, SENT, SIZE (where some of these might be different because you can change them and I would never know). You can sort the messages by clicking on these headings. You can also display and sort your files the same way. |
