I love the Calibre program but I have one problem with it. When it sorts by title it always moves A or The to the end of the title. For example the title The
Sound of Silence gets sorted as Sound of Silence, The. It still shows in the list by the correct title but it doesn't sort it that way and I have to go look for it under S instead of T.

Is there any way to stop this kind of behavior? I've got over 400 books and even splitting the books into other libraries still makes for a lot of books to search when it's doing this because I always forget and search for The Sound of Silence instead of Sound of Silence, The.

Any help will be enormously helpful and appreciated!!
