    I have AOL 9.0 Limited Edition

    When you do not work with something every day and what you are trying to do is hidden, not readily apparent, even highly intelligent and capable people like myself ( ) are reduced to dufussness.

    I stumbled onto someone's blog while googling this past week, and he was talking about trying to help people with simple computer problems. He was talking about trying to help people do not understand the simplest of computer phrases (rattling off several) and then said, "Let me just say it like it is--old people!"

    He went on to say how they turn on him when the simple solutions he gives them do not work, because they cannot follow the simplest instruction!

    Of course, he can probably not find a square root without a calculator or a computer program, so he cannot find C if he knows A and B.

    Anyway, an AOL tech emailed me the simplest instruction to organize the Filing Cabinet, and I could follow it, so there is still hope for me (maybe).

    Here's how you do it:


    1. Sign on to AOL and access your Filing Cabinet.
    2. Click the folder where you want to sort your e-mail.
    3. In the lower part of your Filing Cabinet window, click the SORT FOLDER BY button.
    4. Select the option that you want.
    I do not see a Sort Folder button in the lower part of the Filing Cabinet.

    I see Read, Save, and Delete.

      In my filing cabinet I have one folder named Mail. Under it I have Incoming/Saved Mail, Mail Waiting To Be Sent, and Mail You've Sent.

      When I click on Incoming/Saved Mail or Mail You've Sent it activates a button at the bottom that says Sort Folder By. When you click it you get a menu that says Oldest, Newest, Subject, Mail Type, Email Address.

        JLB probably supersized his AOL cabinet.

            I thought I had this figured out, but I don't.

            When I do what I said, I can reorganize what is already in the Filing Cabinet by either last first or last last, but if I do it by last first, it still puts new one I add last.

            Oh well. Live goes on.
