Perhaps you are talking about the Sony built-in lists, such as by title and by author? Calibre can't do anything about these -- it can control the order only in items in the 'Collections' list. A work-around might be to ask calibre to make collections from author (or author_sort); these will be sorted by title.
Many thanks for this. I was talking about the ' Collections' list on the SD card. I will try the idea of creating collections by author/author sort. Incidentally, before I experimented with Calibre I backed up the books on the SD card and then deleted them all along with the Cache and Database, which I should have thought would clear all previous Collections information. However I just started up the library and it's all still there, as previously! Could anyone help on how I can clear these entirely?

Kind regards
