I upgraded to 2.125. When I print books some of the artist's are by the first and some are by the last name. Has anyone else had this problem?:r I was using 2.014 and didn't have any problems.

Larry,
I had the same problem and realized that I had been causing the problem. When the database did not contain the information on a CDG that I was entering, I typed in the artists' name:
FirstName LastName .
The database is designed to use the comma as a delimiter so it can distinguish the first name from the last name. When you enter the data use the following form:
LastName, FirstName and for groups like the Beatles use:
Beatles, The .
You might want to do the same with song titles as in:
Truth About Men, The .
Hope this helps.

Gary

I just couldn't see why with 2.014 I didn't have the problem. Now with 2.125 it is not the same. I think it had something to do with DB converting on the new version. I had my KMA files backed up on an external drive, so I deleated everything and rebuilt my songs Db and everything is right now. I just won't use the db convert from now on. I list my artist books by first name anyway. Thanks for the help:g
