Opening File
When I have an Excel file open...and I want to open another file, I click on :
File Open then, I select the file and open it Here is the quandry: ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE LISTING OF FILES IN THE DEFAULT LOCATION (C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\Excel) IS NO LONGER IN ALPHABETIC ORDER. SOMEHOW, THE ORDER HAS BEEN SKEWED. Opening up the above folder does have the files listed (correctly) alphabetically; but, the "OPEN" screen from Excel lists the order of the files differently! How did this occur? Can it be fixed? Thanks, FLKulchar |

Opening File
Click FILE/OPEN and in the OPEN dialog box right-click in the file listbox.
Click ARRANGE ICONS BY in the shortcut menu and select the sort flavor you prefer. -- Kevin Backmann "F.
