When I open up Word, it opens to the normal.dot screen. Then if I want to
open a specific document, I click on the Open icon in the Tool Bar. I see a
list of my folders and files, folders first, then files, each sorted
alphabetically. But whenever I go through this procedure, the list always
seems to display in a different place: perhaps at files starting with the
letter d and thereon, perhaps at folders starting with the letter w and
thereon. What can I do such that the listing always opens with the first
column starting with the first folder beginning with the letter a?

It may seem picayune, but I guess I just like to line up my rubber duckies
in a row.
