Adding Sort Options To The Details View In Windows XP!
 
When Explorer is set to use Details view the right pane contains a series of details listed across the top of the right pane. The default details are Name, Size, Type, and Date Modified. Any one of the columns may be clicked to set it as the default to be used in the sort order. The small arrowhead following the detail name indicates whether the sort is in ascending or descending order.

For most users the four default columns are more than sufficient, but if you want additional or different options they are available. Click View > Choose Details and the Choose Details Property Sheet will open. In addition to the four (4) defaults there are twenty-eight (28) other details that can be added or substituted. Add whatever you want, but if you go for all of them it may take you a few days of horizontal scrolling to see them all.

Let me know if you need anything else.
