Robert, Alphabetical is exactly what I'm looking for. I have a huge folder
of Audible files that have gotten transferred to the laptop over a long
period of time and the natural order is separating parts of books and issues
of subscriptions to such a point that it's much more efficient to go to
Explorer and use the send-to-Bookport command to select and send the files I
want. I have tried copying the files to a new directory in the correct
order but this doesn't even work. It's not a huge deal but it's driving me
a little up the wall!

What kind of sorting were you thinking of? The only thing I can think of =
that might be useful would be alphabetical order, though I kind of like =
"natural" order, which is what you get now.

Changing the view in Explorer seems to have no effect on BP Transfer.

I thought it displayed according to how the view is set in Windows =3D
Explorer. In other words, if files are sorted by name, that's how they =3D
will be displayed, if sorted by date modified, then that will take =3D
precedence.

Hello,
Again I'm probably missing something obvious but I can't seem to find =3D
any
way to change the order in which files are displayed in a subdirectory =3D
in
the transfer program. I would like to be able to sort the files by name
instead of by their order of transfer in to the directory but can't seem =
=3D
to
accomplish this. I have looked for a column title such as filename to =3D
click
on, but this does not seem to be on the screen. If there really is no =3D
way to
change the sort order I think this would be a very useful enhancement. =
=3D
I
understand why this might not be possible on the Bookport itself, but =3D
this
should be fairly easy to do in terms of the transfer software.
