Hi All Strange one this. The My Documents icon on the Desktop ever since I loaded XP home some long while ago now has always shown the files starting from the top with Folders followed by Files in alphabetical order starting with A. Today for some reason it has reversed that order. I've now given up trying to work out how to correct this back to the way it was. I can find no trace of help in the on board help pages so I'm looking to the experts for an easy fix. Thanks guys.
