What I start doing now is rename them all with this format (TRACK - ARTIST - SONG - DISKID) and put it on a new folder with a program called File Renamer. Do you guys think I'm doing ok with that type of format? I'm thinking once I finish all my collection renamed upload on to the database.

Thanks for the responses!

I usually find the "Track" unnecessary and if I were renaming all my files I would leave it out, Hoster will allocate it's own track # when importing.
So "Artist - Title - Disc Id would be better but that's just my opinion. Alternately you can always set the field order to Ignore Track #.
MTU recommends naming Artist with "Last name, First name" order but that could cause you more problems, they will still import OK using the import hard drive files dialog. What you need to think about is how they list in the songbook, if you already have songs listed as" Last name, First name" order then import others as "First name Last name" your songbook will end up a jumble.
