FileDialog and grouping

[TOPSie]

I have recently got a Windows 11 PC. I have ported over most of my Access programs with few issues.
But I have found one little niggle.



When I want to select a new file I use the Application.FileDialog method.

Windows 11 File Explorer now come swith the annoying Grouping - so even if you order a folder by name - the grouping (default by date) takes precedence and the folder view starts with Today's files even if they start with Z.

I have managed to turn off this feature in Windows Explorer - but I can find no way to turn it off in the FileDialog method. The likely place is the msoFileFialogView enumeration, but I can see no value for "Grouping" (either on or off)

Anyone fixed this ??

That dialog is for Excel? I use msoFileDialogFilePicker (or FolderPicker as the case may be) but I don't know if your issue exists with that on Windows 11.

I just started using Windows11. Could you post your code?
