Hi David,
Have done it. Must be slightly different in Vista - for future
reference for anyone who's interested this is how.
I'm using Windows Vista. In the view menu there isn't an arrange
icons, but there is a sort by. In that sort by menu there is name
(which is currently selected), artists, album, number, genre, rating,
ascending, descending and more. If I go to more it's asking you to
select which attributes you want to display in the sort by menu.
There are tons there and I selected "date created", which now appears
in the sort by menu and I can sort it the way I want.
Thanks,
Catherine
