Default Changing the Order of Column Headers in Save/Open Dialog

Does anyone know how to permanently change the column order in the
save/open dialog box in XP? The dialog box always displays the
columns in the following order (in the details view): File Name, Size,
Type, Date Modified. I would like to change it to: File Name, Size,
Date Modified, Type. I already know the type based on the icon and
the extension and to see the date, I have to scroll right to see it
(or scroll right and drag the column header to the left).

Thanks,

Curtis

[[Do you find yourself constantly changing to details view, then resizing
the columns to see the full file name? File-Ex can do this automatically. ]]

Or this one.
