title: Sort SharePoint Folder Content by Date
body: <p>I am extremely new to SharePoint.  What I need to do is have a folder's content sort by date.  We have a list of Automated Reports, which is really a list of different report folders.  I need this list to sort by name (which it is).  However; I need to be able to sort the files inside each folder to sort by Date - Descending.  I created a View and I thought I was assigning it to a specific folder, but the entire list of Automated Reports sorted by date.  </p>
  
  <p>So, my questions are:  Should I be using a View?  And, if so, how to I assign it to a specific folder?  And, if not, what should I be doing to set the files to always sort in Descending Date order?</p>
  
  <p>Also, please note:  I'm not sure if the version of SharePoint we're using is 2007 or 2010.  Best guess is 2007.</p>
