find command nonrecurslu listing ls -lrt
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have tried
find . type -f -exec ls -lrt {} \;
but it listed files recursively ,I need only that dir files not internal dir file.

I _think_ the OP means recursively, not in reverse order.

Now I _think_ that the OP need maxdepth 1, however I don't understand why he need -r ?
Code:
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec ls -lrt {} \;

@OP, using find to do a listing on 1 level of directory is redundant. use ls , as radoulov stated.

Thanks all ,but this code show error :
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec ls -lrt {} \;
find: 0652-017 -maxdepth is not a valid option.
