Got it. In this case Ascii sort would have worked better for me, but I understand. Thanks for the other response as well. ]]> https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/sort-results-by-file-name-working-properly/?ID=0eb6779f-15b8-46fd-aee4-b8eceec8994c#2 Wed, 09 May 2018 15:55:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/sort-results-by-file-name-working-properly/?ID=0eb6779f-15b8-46fd-aee4-b8eceec8994c#2 FileSeek The sorted results look correct to me. They're sorted this way because we use "natural" sorting instead of just a blind sort, so smaller numbers come first (e.g. File2008 will come before File10099 because it's a smaller number). This article explains natural sorting in a bit more detail: Sorting for Humans : Natural Sort Order ]]> https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/sort-results-by-file-name-working-properly/?ID=0eb6779f-15b8-46fd-aee4-b8eceec8994c Mon, 07 May 2018 16:13:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/sort-results-by-file-name-working-properly/?ID=0eb6779f-15b8-46fd-aee4-b8eceec8994c FileSeek I just downloaded FileSeek, and it looks exactly like what I'm looking for on my new computer. It looks, however, that sorting the results by File Name don't seem to work properly. I have attached both a screen snap, and the results of the screen snap copy-and-pasted into Excel.

It looks like the results are sorted by Path first, and File Name second - or, by path-and-file. ]]>
