   how order the articles in a specific category?
   I show my problem:
   I need a category different from the others,
   because i have not a category file but i have the archive.php I have understood that i have to copy the archive.php and rename it in archive-2.php right?

   Wich code i have to add in archive.php to call the archive-2.php?

   I want my category (called archive-2.php) make it in reverse chronological order (from the oldest to the newest one articles) but how to do this?

   How make the the "archive-2.php" corresponds to the category i desire?

   thank you

   No. Assuming your chosen category has the slug foo, you need to rename the new file category-foo.php. See Category_Templates for the full explanation.

   Once you have your new category template file, you need to add a custom query just before the Loop - such as:

   <?php
   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   $args= array(
   	'orderby' => 'date',
   	'order' => 'ASC',
   	'paged' => $paged
   );
   query_posts($args);
   ?>

   `
