thanks Steve. It's simple enough when you know how but you would not intuitively think that choosing the same option again would reverse the order.

In other words, every time you select the option that is already selected, it will be selected again, but reversed. If you don't see the effect of it immediately, press the F5 key to refresh the list. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

I have recently changed computers. On my old computer I had a file of reports with the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom. I know you can go to view, arrange icons and select arrange by last modified but how do I then reverse the order in which the files are listed to descending rather than ascending?
