Hi,
I would like to place my documents/files in a customized order inside my folders. When I try drag the document to move it in the order I need - it doesn't move. With Vista I could drag and drop files in any order I wanted. Now I'm only given the choice to arrage by Author, Date Modified, Tag, Type or Name. However, these choices do not allow me to personalize the order.

Does anyone know who to drag documents within a folder?

Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, right. That does not work in win7 like in Vista. You can help yourself by putting a sequencing number in front of the folder name.

I try to them them, in such a way that they will be in the order I prefer. I use the numbering system as suggested above.

Removed totally, or only if you're not the system administrator? If I make myself system administrator would manual sorting be possible?

I tried and cannot sort. One of the benefits of Win7, to make life easy.
