so are you suggesting that i remove those prepositions? i actually dont
understand what you're trying to say, i personally edited all the tags
myself, i think the sorter of wmp is ignoring the prepositions...

yeps its mp3 tags, i wanna sort them and retain the current tags, for
example
the preposition "the", i wanna sort them inline with the letter "t"s,
so
when
i press "t" i'll be pointed to the music starting with "t"

take a look at this screenies

http://comsoc.evenhosting.com/web/screenie.jpg

is there a way to also sort the prepositions like 'a' 'an' 'the'? is
there
a
way not to ignore them when sorting?


Yes.

But if these are the song titles why do you want to do that ??????

BTW, what format are you using ?

mp3's : edit them with this -

If its for an iPod, then use iTunes.

If its for wav's, then use Windows Explorer and right click on the
title
then rename.

id3Tag then or a similar editor.

OK, here we go.

Title is "The Song"

If you want the song to be classed under s (for Song), then the title has to
begin with an s.

If you want it to be classed under t (for The) then the title needs to begin
with the T.

Another example : do I want to have the group names as The Beatles or
Beatles ? If the former, then it'll be classified with all those groups that
I tagged "The ........". If I got rid of the "The", then they'll be
classified with all those groups beginning with a "B". Capice ? Same goes
for song titles. Drop the "The" and you"ll get a metter classification.

WMP will classify by the FIRST letter of the title (T for The, S for song
etc.) Make sure your tags are up to scratch.

Cheers,
Jerry
