There's an even easier way to do this.  Set the window to "View by Small
Icon" first.  Then set it to "View by Name" (or whatever).  Select All,
and drag all the files to the gray outline of the window you are dragging
them from, and drop them in.  Then set the window back to "View by Small
Icon."  (The first set to "View by Small Icon" is necessary because the
Finder remembers and uses the last iconic view to set the coordinates of
files dropped in a folder, even if that folder is not currently being
shown in an iconic view).
