Thank you, Bob. I think that should do it.
Now that you mention it, it seems crazily obvious.

Cliff,
I will assume that you mean that you are naming your files with numerals
instead of alpha characters. If that is correct, do the following.
20110101.txt for January 1, 2011
20110201.txt for February 1, 2011
...
20111201.txt for December 1, 2011.
The .txt is just for an example, use whatever extension is appropriate.
If all of your files will be dated within the 21st century, you need not
begin the file name with the 20.
Be sure to use two digits for the month and two digits for the day in
every
date.
This file naming convention will maintain a correct chronological order
for
the files within the folder.
hth
Bob

I'm entering files into a folder, added to monthly.
My entries do not appear in running order, by the month, but more
alphabetically.
I'd like them to appear in running order. I'm listing the months by
number,
rather than by name.
How do I accomplish this?
Many thanks.
