A movie title beginning with the word "THE".  How can I get the "THE" to appear at the end of  the title? For example  ( Cotton Club, The )

Can you also tell me how to keep the movies I add to my collection list at the top of the list until i'm ready to Reassign Collection Numbers?

Only way I can think to do that would be to sort your movies by the Collection Number so the highest is on top.  Then all the new stuff you're entering will show on top.  Of course, this will change the sort of all your movies which is probably not what you're trying to do.

Though, actually you could do exactly what you wanted if we could reassign Collection Numbers by Title, but in reverse alphabetical.  Then when sorted by Collection Number with the highest on top, it would display the collection in alphabetical order while putting new entries at the very top.  But alas, we can't do it by Title in reverse alphabetical order.

Under "Wish List" is "Title" "DVD Rele..." and "C". If you press the"C" all the titles you've added will move to the top of the list.

That's great - thanks. Is there a place for "newbies" that would give simple basic directions in outlining the most useful or favorite things invelos offers? I've only been using a computer for a year and it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks! Although I read the messages offered by forum members, I usually have no idea what in the world you're talking about! I'm used to record albums and rotary phones - which I still use!!

I only want the movies at the top of the list as I add them. When I add them I dont want them to go in any order, just for them to stay at the top until I put them where I want to. Like they did before I downloaded the new version.

If it worked in the old version, you just happened to have the needed setting without realizing, I think. The newly added titles will be sorted in according the Sort By setting, just like it was in 2.x.

For Owned: Sort by collection number, ascending (lowest on top)
For Ordered: Sort by purchase date, descending (highest on top)

I'd have to check, but if there is a Sort By by Date Added, than that should work for all tabs...
