Are you referring to how files and folders are sorted in the Open dialog box? In that case, you should be able to change the sort order by clicking the column heading.

When I click on the folder icon, directly under "File", at the top left of Word, I get a pop up box which I assume is the Open dialog box you are speaking of. In the main window of this box are all of the folders and documents arranged in columnar format with the folders on the far left. Unfortunately the dialog box opens with Column 3 at the far left instead of Column 1. I do not see any column heading to click on. All that is available is the slider bar which I can move over to the left to get me to Column 1 & 2. This is the extra step I want to eliminate by having the Open dialog box opening with Column 1 & 2 appearing on the left instead of Column 3. There must be a setting somewhere that will fix this. What is it?
