Where's the problem? Sorted!

void Main()

	string [] allFiles = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\<yourPathToFiles>","*.txt");
	SortedList allFileNames = new SortedList();
	order fileSortOrder = new order();
	foreach (string filename in allFiles)
	{
		string tempName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(filename);
		allFileNames.Add(Enum.Parse(fileSortOrder.GetType(),tempName), Path.GetFileName(filename));
	}
	for (int i=0; i< allFileNames.Count;i++)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(allFileNames.GetByIndex(i));
	}
}

enum order
{
	first,
	second,
	third,
	fourth,
	fifth,
	sixth,
	seventh,
	eighth,
	ninth,
