Files sorted by date are backwards

[jw]

I have both Win98 and Win2000 on this computer. When I am using
Windows Explorer in Win98, and sort the files by DATE, the newest date
is at the top of the list. In Win2000, they are sorted backwards, in
other words the oldest file is at the top of the list. Although this
is a minor issue, it's very annoying because I'm always having to look
at everything in reverse depending on which OS I am using. Did
Microsoft do this just to annoy people switching from 98 to 2K, or is
there a fix for this? I want the NEWEST date at the TOP of the list
(like in 98).
Anyone know how?

Thanks

Sure. Click the column header for the date a second time and it will
reverse the sort.

That was easy. But who would know this without asking.
