Displaying Author Sort Names
Is there any way or tweak to display the author names in the sorted order (LN, FN) on the primary display of all books rather than the given order (FN, LN)? With several hundred books in the list it is harder to find somebody by their first name rather than their last name, especially when you don't know the first name or there are several with that name, eg., Michael.
Thank you Mike |

Read it again. particularly the note in the grey box about using the manage authors dialog to overwrite your author names with the author sort values.
