Hi. Can anyone tell me why the movie "A Mighty Heart" does not get inserted into the proper place alphabetically? It shows up under M not A. Also, I understand why "The" in movie titles is filtered out, but where can I control this behaviour for movies for which the word "the" is necessary for the title to make sense?

thanks

That's what it should do.

Your profiles have a Sort Order field and you can use this to sort things any way you want.

I think this is just a display being, whether the title is shown as

The Movie
or
Movie, The
