Using NT Server 4.0. I frequently use a performance monitor chart with about 70 computers listed on the chart. Whenever I add a new computer to an existing (.PMC file) chart, the new computer ends up at the bottom of the list. I would much rather have the chart automatically list all computers, including the one I just added, in alphanumerical order instead. Does anyone have any idea (Registry hack, bug fix, etc.) of how to accomplish this? Thanks.

tidy , if you just run your .PMC from the command line - ie 70servers.pmc on a Win2k box it will fire up the new Performance tool - you can then resort the columns by double clicking on them in the usual way. Then save as a .MSC - unfortunatly there is no "save as PMC" option.
There is an SDK for Perfmon as part of the Platform SDK - might be worth sniffing round that
