456770 2006-05-22 04:42:00 Hi,using XPpro. The list of my deleted items has become all mixed up. How can I put them in order by date.

Another problem that has arisen, is that on booting up I get a blue screen asking for my administer password. As I don't have one a click will continue the boot and will open. It's just a nuisance as I have to stand and wait for this sequence. Have no idea how this came about as it has just started to act this way.
Cheers, Ron..

456772 2006-05-22 06:04:00 Hi ron. Re the deleted items... if they are in the Recycle Bin, click once on the Date Deleted heading. Click on it again to reverse the order. When you say mixed up, they are probably in alpha order? Scouse (83)
456773 2006-05-22 06:08:00 Is this blue screen you see when booting up the Windows Login Manager? Have you installed via Windows Update .NET recently? Jen (38)
456774 2006-05-22 08:33:00 Many thanks to Scouse and Jen for the reply.

The deleted items are in the OE "deleted items" list, not in the recycle bin. As of last week any deleted item just added to the bottom of the list and was easy to find. Now it's lost among a hundred or so others.

The blue screen is the Log in one with "Aministrator" on one side and a click on this will make the computer carry on booting. I have not added anything to cause this to happen, it was just there one morning when I tried to log on.

Regards..Ron..(another Scouse)

456777 2006-05-24 03:34:00 Hello Jen and Cicero, you both hit the jackpots with your advice.
Followed the advice in the "ADVICE" page and what a great page that is, all fixed up now and opening as I wanted.

Went to View in OE and ticked "Received" and then ascending order, that put my deleted items in the ascending order that I was looking for.

Thanks again...Ron..
