How To Open Documents in Date Modified Order

[diver9]

Hi,



I have a friend who has windows 7 and office 2003. He has asked if there is any way of setting the default order that files/word documents are opened to "date modified". This means that when he selects open when in word, a list of files and documents come up in alphabetical order. The files are at the top and documents below. Is there any way of removing the files and leaving just the documents.

I would point out that when I have checked, there are files then the word documents beneath it when "open" is selected.

My apologies if this has been covered, but I have searched and cannot find the answer?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Diver
