My word 2003 directory has became sorted in decending order. How can I sort
it in ascending order?

This doesn't work here in Word 2003; Arrange Icons by > Name will sort by
name in ascending order if some other sort order is chosen, but it won't
reverse the order if the folder is sorted by name in descending order. To do
that, you have to display Details view and click on the Name header to
reverse the sort.

It works for me - it operates as a toggle to switch between A-Z and Z-A

Well, you probably have Windows XP, and I have Windows 2000, which might
make a difference, but it definitely doesn't work here.
