sorting in Open/Save dialog box

R

Ray

I am having problems with the sorting in my Open/Save
dialog boxes. In Windows Explorer there are no problems
but in the dialog boxes it seems like it sorts according
to last modified date instead of by name. I can go
through the steps to change it but the next time it is
unsorted again. How can I change it to sort by name as
the default? Is there some registry key to change? It
used to be okay but then for some reason it changed!
