Automatically sort files/icons alphabetically?

[Pheasant Plucker®]

Hi there,

Probably a stupid question but is it possible in XP to have files/icons etc.
automatically sort themselves alphabetically?

I mean when I copy some files into a folder they always appear last.

I realise I can right-click in the folder and arrange icons by name but is
there a way to have XP do this by itself?

It gets tedious to have to do this every time I need to look for files to
ensure everything is arranged alphabetically...

You're obviously not a Feather Clucker <g>.

Try using F5 on the window.

No but I'm trying hard to be a Pleasant *?!#*!

Is there a way to get XP to automatically sort the icons without having to
press anything?

Thanks & regards,
