Sorting folders alphabetically in Vista.

This is doing my nut in

, for some reason contents of me "documents" folder has got all jumbled up whereas before all the folders were listed alphabetically which obviously makes them easier to locate. Can some knid soul here please tell me how to sort these folders out so they're listed alphabetically.
Cheers

yep, I'd already done that mate, in the left hand section the folders are shown alphabetically, but in the righthand section they're still all over place.

Can you post a screenshot?

For future reference, all the columns can be sorted in forward or reverse order simply by clicking the column title.
