I want Always to Open in Details View

Whenever I do a file/open or file/attach in many
applications I get the default "List" view (folders
followed by a listing of files in the root directory.) I
prefer the details view and always need to adjust the
columns to get to the "modified" column, then double click
to arrange by date last saved. The next time I open the
application and get the directory pop-up I am forced to do
the same thing.

Is there some way to force an application to open with my
preferred settings (detailed view - arranged by time
saved - decending)?
 
Nope.

I've been there many times and have customized to my
preferences, including "Remember each folder's view
settings." This still doesn't affect e.g., opening a file
in my image editing or email software (and most others).
I still get "list" view. Explorer is locked onto details
view, however.

Anyone... How do I get my applications other than Windows
Explorer to default to "details" view (per my original
query).
