I am doing an extremely tedious job where I have to compare files on a CD with files on our server and updating the server files if necessary. They don't necessarily have the same name even if they're the same file due to a change in our naming conventions, so I figure the easiest way to do this is to sort the files by size, and check the edit times on files of the same size and check the contents only if necessary.
So I'm viewing details in explorer, and I try and sort by size. The server folder works quite well, sorting from smallest to largest, or vice versa. On the CD however, it's sorting them into size groups (small, medium and large), but it's not sorting them by size inside of these groups. Why not, and how can I fix it? Also, who's the idiot who thought that scheme up, and can someone go break his legs for me? Thanks. |
