I need to get back to alphabetical file order in File Open (CS2)

Suddenly my file order has changed in File Open window and is in reverse alphabetical file order with numbers last. I need to get back to 0-10 followed by A-Z in that order. I can arrange icons by name and it works, but when I leave the file and come back it is reversed. I have no idea why this changed. I've been using this product for years. I'm using the OS dialog and have Windows XP. Thanks.

Set the order you wish to see using Windows Explorer, hold ctrl and press the Close button ("X") on the window. The sorting order for the Open/Save dialog should be changed
