Office 2000 Incorrectly Sorts Files and Folders windows xp

[Michael]

Office 2000 Incorrectly Sorts Files and Folders windows xp when clicking on
the name header in the open or save dialog box. This occurs in all Office
2000 products running on XP.

For example, create and sort in Word 2000 (running on XP) the following
filenames in a directory:

16650 (5)
16650 (6)
16650
16650 (3)
16650-4
16651
16652
16653

This is how the files are sorted when the title bar "Name" is clicked or
"Arrange Icons" is used in detail view

Also note that this problem is not the same problem described in the Windows
Explorer sort problem between W2K and XP as described in KB Article 319827

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
