Importing Music

[Guest]

Hi, when I import my music into OrangeCD everything works fine and all, but I was just wondering if there is a way to change the way it imports certains files. For instance say if I were to import The Eagles, it should show up as Eagles, The. Is there a way I can make artists like that show up as The XXXX instead of XXXX, The?

If you edit the artists' properties, you can set the "sort name" to display "The" in front of the artists' name but OCD still sorts "The Eagles" under E.

Is this what you had in mind?

Well, yes and no, I knew I could do it that way, but I was wondering if there was a quick way to change them all at once, sorting through alot of albums takes some time. I also wanted them to be listed under "T" rather then "E" in that case. Is that possible at all?

That is even easier:
select View, Preferences
select the Database tab
in the Customs Lists box, select Ignorable Words
then click Customize
This brings up another box
Select "the" and click the remove box (repeat for any others you want to remove)
click OK
click OK
