How can I sort Google Drive files numerically?

Asked By SillyPenguin42 On

I'm trying to organize files in Google Drive for a presentation, which includes both Google Docs and Sheets. Even after numbering the files as I want them, Google Drive causes Docs and Sheets to be separated, resulting in a messy order like 6, 8, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7—where 6 and 8 are Sheets and the rest are Docs. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to arrange them correctly? Thanks!

You might want to check the sorting settings in Drive and ensure you're sorting by filename instead of file type. Sometimes that helps!

Consider converting your Sheets to Docs if it's feasible for your presentation. Just search for 'convert Google Sheets to Google Docs' for instructions!

I need the Sheets to stay as they are, so the formulas work properly when they get their own copies. Thanks for the idea, though!

A simple solution is to create a new folder for the Sheets with the same name. This way, you can keep them grouped together and sort them numerically in that folder.
