Is it possible to set the properties of a Common Dialog Control so that the files/folders are presented alphabetically?

For some reason that escapes me, every time the user uses CD controls in my projects they themselves have to order the files because there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to the order in which they are presented.

Yes, I've searched on this forum ("common", "alphabetical", etc.) but no joy in previous posts - only how to use File and Directory boxes.

Thanks
Mike

 
The order is determined by what the user sets in Windows Explorer - such as name,type,date, attributes etc., I dont think you can change this setting within the control.
