Is there a way to arrange the files in a folder other than alphabetically? I
would like to arrange the files in a personally determined sequence.
Thanks.

You can *view* the files in the sequence of any of the field names you
see: date, size, type, date modified, etc. Just click on the column
header. Click it again to reverse the sort from low-high to high-low,
or vice versa.

But sorry, you can't do that.

Hi Don,
in your explorer window, click view, sort by, more. It gives a lot of
options for sorting.

Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time,
Because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

I should have added that if you want to attach tags in a certain order,
you can then sort by tags.
