arranging icons by date in XP problem

[mkjuk]

if i go to view i can arrange icons by:

name
size
type
artist
album title
year
track no
duration

on my old computer i could arrange icons by date so the most recent files were at the bottom.

I want to do this on my new computer - how do i set this up please?

Right click on the bar where you can see name / size / type etc and then you can tick what you want i.e. date modified.

Another thought which I find useful - if you click on any of the "titles" on the bar you can change the order they are shown in . e.g Click on date modified and it changes so that the most recent ones are at the top - saves scrolling down a long list to find your newer ones. Also handy for putting names in alphabetical order.
