[gui-talk] XP Windows Explorer files list viewsuddenlyupsidedown

[Joel Deutsch]

Well, it was really cool that you remembered. There is no darn item for 
choosing ascending or descending order in the View menu, as I thought I 
remembered. I'm really thankful I didn't have to switch to the Jaws cursor 
and do something or other in the toolbar, as I think Dean mentioned. I had 
no experience with that and it sounded awfully difficult.

thanks anyway, Dean and others who responded. Of course.

I don't know if it's my bad memory, or it was *really a long time ago.
I probably puzzled over the same problem you had and discovered the
solution by chance.

Good luck.

        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

down

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
