Shame on me. I sometimes speak like a little pig asking for launch O:-)

Try this:

Go to "Tools / Options / LibreOffice / General" and check "[x] use 
libreoffice prompts or dialogs", click "Accept/OK" and go to "File / 
Open". Sort by the desired column and this setting will be kept for the 
next time you open a file.
