        Dale,

I tried that and it worked, and to say this was "counterintuitive'is an 
understatement. On that submenu, you can choose files to be listed by name, 
icon, and so forth, and there are other adjustments, too. But ascending and 
descending order aren't to be found anywhere on that list, not at least so 
far as Jaws is nconcerned, anyway.

Incredible. How did you figure this out?

ALT-v for the  View option in the Menu Bar;
I for  Arrange Icons;

Now you'll have a list of fields by which you may order your folder
items.

Repeating the sequence - that is, using the same ordering field twice -
reverses the ordering.

HTH

It's been a long time since I dealt with this, and I've forgotten. I
know you can fix it so the files appear in ascending (starting with
numerals , then letter A) or descending, Z to A.

But I forget where to set this. And The files list view on my laptop
today suddenly has inverted the list views from ascending (normal for
me, A to Z) to descending (Z to A).


I have no idea how this happened. And I'd like to make it as it was. But
I've explored both the View Menu and the Tools menu in Windows Explorer,
and just can't find an option for this.
Help, please,
Joel
