    Attaching files issue, they are not in abc order when searching


    How do I correct the fact that when I search for a file to save as an attachment, the folders in my document folder are in ABC order but the files are not. This takes a lot of time having to go through all the individual files to find the file I want to attach .I use Word 2013,BT Mail and Firefox. On normal viewing the Folders and files are all in alphabetical order.

    :)

    Put files in firefox folders in abc order


    With the help of someone on this forum, I finally got all my folders in alphabetical order, now for the files. I know that you can click on "sort by name" and the files will be in alphabetical order, but is there a way to keep them in order? It seems to me that on my desktop running Windows Vista, that I was able somehow to keep my files in ABC order. Is this possible?

    Attaching files issue, they are not in abc order when searching [​IMG]

    As can be seen from my snip, my folders are not in alphabetical order. Is there a way to do this? I can arrange the files in the folders that way, but they don't stay...next time I go back they're in random order again. On my Vista desktop, I can arrange both folders and files in ABC order and they stay that way. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
