A question on Sorting by First Word in Title
Is there any way to force Calibre to sort by the first word in the title for books starting with the words 'The', 'A' and 'And' etc. For example, I want The Art of War to be sorted as 'The Art of War' rather than as 'Art of War, The'.

Thanks in advance

In Tweaks, there's a lovely little sentence saying "Only edit this file if you know what you are doing." - I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. Can I get some hand-holding please? What should I change in Tweaks to get this to work?

Ok, no need for the hand-holding; I figured out how to do it.
