Date numbering out of order in Outlook 07

Hi guys, I am a function organiser and within Outlook I have mail
files for each event I am running. So for example, I would have a mail
folder set up that looks like this:

12 December
     1 Dec Pharmacy Guild
      6 Dec
     15 Dec Event Central
     25 Dec Christmas Day

But what I find is that Outlook puts things in a different order than
I would expect and so I have ended up with this:

Is there a work around (other than renaming every sub-folder a-z)?

Thanks in advance for help on sorting in order,
Jo

Actually, none of your sub-folders are out-of-order. To get the order
you want, you'll have to use two-digit numbers (06 Dec, not just 6
Dec), using that convention to rename all your sub-folders.
