I use the Calibre Plug-Board method myself so that when I open a collection my books display the No, Series and Book Title on the Kindle screen. You can read about it up in the Calibre Forum but it doesn't require actually changing the title of the book in Calibre. It just combines the fields before sending the info over to the Kindle. This is how a book displays on my Kindle Screen. When arranged by Title they then sort by series and then number...
Earth's Children - 01 - Clan of the Cave Bear Jean Auel
Earth's Children - 02 - Valley of the Horses Jean Auel
I really don't know of a way to make them properly sort on the Kindle without that. Also, if you don't display the Series then Author Collections that contain more than one series are extra likely to get all mixed up.

abookreader - I am using the metadata plug board (assuming that is what you are using) and quick question to you. Does your series end up in order in the Collections,meaning:
Book 1
Book 2
Book 3, etc.
I am using the following as a metadata plug board:
{series_index:0>2s| - | - }{title}
My books are ordering in the following manner:
Book 3
Book 2
Book 1
Don't understand this and it is very confusing why the books order this way within my Collections. Any thoughts??
