When in a directory that has a large number of files, the files
are listed alphabetically by file name. Sometimes, it is
desirable to see the listing of files sorted by the time (date) of
their creation or by the size of the files, from largest to
smallest.
Note:
·
The alphabetical sorting option is case-sensitive. This
means that file names beginning with upper-case letters
come before file names beginning with lower-case letters.
The sort order is
A-Z
, then
a-z
. This means, for example,
you could have a file named
WORDS.TXT
listed before a
file named
a-plus.htm
.
How To Use the Listing Sort Tool:
1.
When in the
File Manager
screen, the
Sort Tool

located at the bottom of the current file listing.

button. The screen reappears with
the files and directories listed in the selected sort order.
Note:
·
Once a Sort order has been specified, it will be applied to
all listings for the duration of your session. To change
the sort order back, repeat the process described above,
and choose a different sort option.
