Folder order

Hi,
Is there a simple character that will put a folder to the bottom when viewed in alphabetical order?

TIA

Hello, Jeno,

I am guessing that you are asking about the Documents folder.

If so, the short answer is — put a z in front of the folder name if you want it to appear at the bottom of the list; for example — z Old Stuff.

The long answer is — folders which are labeled with a number are listed first. Folders which are labeled by name appear alphabetically and are under numbered folders.

I use a three section setup —

• numbered folders at the top. 00 and 01 will preceed 10.
• alphabetical folders in the middle
• my bottom folders are named z1 Computer Items / z2 Updaters / z3 House Info / z4 Past Projects / z5 etc.
