  • Alphabetizing File Downloads

    From Todd Holcomb@3:770/3 to All on Tue Nov 23 15:10:19 2021
    I'm wondering if there's a way to alphabetize File directories (Downloads) once some new files are uploaded? The new uploaded files go to the bottom of the directory when you add them and I can't figure out how to re-alphabetize all the files without
    losing all the descriptions...

    Thanks!

    There is a function in MUTIL called "FileSort" which can be used to sort the file bases in alphabetical order (among other things).

    ... There is an exception to every rule, except this one.
