I have tested the majority of the Non-Web Project types and all seems to be in alphabetical order now (leaving Project types and Web items for next weekend).  Here are the screen prints for some of the project types:

Standard New Items (most projects like Win Form, Class Library, etc.):

The new database project type:

A test project:

My install is Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Developers meaning your file listing might be different than mine.... so if it is different - you can use the above table as a starting point.  If it is pretty much the same - you can download all the edited files that I did this weekend from my website.

Warning: since everyone customizes their VS.Net differently be aware that this might not be a good idea for you to do this (ie. if you break your install - don't blame me) ...

To use the download, you will need to do the following:

1. Back up your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ItemTemplates\CSharp\1033 directory
2. Extract the zip file somewhere
3. Move all the zip files in the download to the above mentioned directory
4. From a command prompt (works best if in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8 directory) “devenv.exe /setup”
