Up to now file namwes have been in alphabetical order. Now they are mixed.
How do I sort the file names into alphabetical order?

If you mean filenames in a folder, perhaps you sorted them by "date" or

Try sorting by "name"

Thanks Gord (and also Max) - Yes I do mean file names in a folder. Perhaps I
am slow but can't see a sort tab/icon

In Windows Explorer,
Click on the folder
Click View Arrange Icons by
and you should see the droplist options to arrange by:
Name, Size, Type, Modified
