Getting the filelist ordered by name?

Hi, All!

How do I make java.io.File return the filelist in a specific order?

This is the code:
File fileDirectory = new File("c:/temp/");
String[] sfilelist = fileDirectory.list();

Now the list(String array) comes in this order:
picture1.jpg
picture10.jpg
picture2.jpg

...but I wan't it to be like this:
picture1.jpg
picture2.jpg
picture10.jpg

...or can I sort the array of string in some way?

Thankful for any help.

PS. I'm using Win2000
