I'm redoing a file browser for one of my programs and I'm wondering, how does DB determine the order in which files are found? Its not alphabetical, so what is it?

Thanks in advance

I think it's sorted either by file creation time, or file last modified time

Hmm that's going to be hard to work with since the the creation date is going to be the same for all installed files on a person's computer.

Thanks for the info though
