File Open dialog lists files in random order?

Post by SteveH2 »

I recently noticed that when I click File >> Open, the filelist in whatever folder I'm viewing is no longer sorted in order by filename (it always was, until today). I can't tell what order it's in....it appears to be random. This is a problem in folders that contain a lot of files & other folders, although I can always go to Windows Explorer to find the file quickly, and open it from there.

I thought it might be Windows doing this, but a File >> Open dialog in Microsoft Word still lists the files in order. Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it? I tried restarting TextPad and that didn't help.

BTW, I'm running TextPad 4.7 on Windows XP.

Thanks for any help!
