"A book"
"B book"
"The C book"
"D book"

although i believe it should be

"A book"
"B book"
"D book"
"The C book"

as "The" is part of the title and therefore should be part of the sorting order. So far i've never seen sorting order ignoring articles. It just kills me as everytime i have to look at all titles manually just to be sure nothing's been overseen. Sorting title column doesn't seem to help. Not very convenient for me.

Any hints or comments ?

Thx.
Standard sorting order for titles has been to ignore "The" and "A", except for titles such as A for Anything.That's the way everybody does it, even before computers.
