By the sound of it you have BNR3 setup to group all of the files so the
pages are smaller, I dont have it setup that way just for that reason (and
that I have used BNR since before it did this). If you have it set to not
have the hierarchy view off (to the left of FltCfg) you will then see it
all in one pane, which you can sort better IMO.

If you also go into the main group page and right click on the group and
select the properties and go into sorting you can set the group so sort
the way you want from the start. I have found it is better to have some
groups set one way and others another, but that is only something that you
can work out what you like best.

Or just click on the top named bar of what you want to sort it on, file
name, time/date subject, you can have a first and second sort... it does
make a difference.
