I need to have the left and right columns set to two specific directories, that I access often, and also sorted by inverse date.  I want to have this set to a button, is there any easy way to do this without learning scripting?

That helps - but as I'm working I move around to different directories and would like a quick way to get back to my "favorite" setting

Not without using script..

But it is a pretty easy script. Create a script and assign that to a button/menu/hotkey

Create a command of MultiScript type and do

MC.Explorer.Goto PATH="C:\MyPath"
MC.Explorer.Sort COL=1 ORDER=ASC


See Doc for more parameters to the command that can be usefull
MC.Explorer.Sort
MC.Explorer.Goto

One more thing. It is possible to create special column set that will be applied when you open predefined directories.

Oh very cool - it took my two minutes to get one side what a want from a button push - now I need to read the docs for the other side
