Hi - Here's my problem. I have a folder in my bookmarks titled Current Bookmarks. It contains both subfolders and bookmarks.

When I go to Manage Bookmarks, select that folder, and use the Views/Sort/Sort by Name.A-Z sort order, the subfolders aren't shown in alpha order. Any new subfolders I create end up at the bottom, listed after the page bookmarks.

Is there any way to get all the subfolders to sort properly?

Thanks for your help!

The Views menu is only for viewing purposes in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) and doesn't sort the bookmarks permanently. This is the same as clicking on the column header. You can sort the content of a folder by right-clicking this folder and clicking "Sort By Name".

Thanks so much for taking the time to answer what must have seemed like a silly question!
