Sort Issue: "mixing" files and sub-folders Options Advertisers


Hello,

Is there a way to make Windows XP treat files and folders the same way
when sorting them in view?

Today, when you have a folder which contains both files and
sub-folders, Windows XP firsts sorts all the folders and then sorts all
the files. I want them both files and sub-folders to be "mixed"
together and sorted only according to their names.

Current situation:
AAA [folder]
CCC [folder]
BBB [file]
DDD [file]
EEE [file]

Desirable situation:
AAA [folder]
BBB [file]
CCC [folder]
DDD [file]
EEE [file]

Thanks,
Dave.

Not natively, maybe you can find a 3rd party "file manager" that does that.
