Open the 2.127 manual.
In the Table of Contents (TOC) find Import Tracks Tab (col 1)
The 2nd entry down is "Steps to Import Tracks"; click it.
At that topic in the manual, scroll down to below #10.
Find the box titled ALWAYS Verify the Song and Artist Names Before Importing!.

Read this carefully to see how to enter a filename.

If your Brand-DiscID is not in the database, you must enter the Song name and Artist name fields for each track you want to import. The box above describes how to copy-paste any existing names you may already have in a song book file. However, if you don't have them already, simply click into the Song name field and type in the song name.

Follow these rules to make your song books print correctly:[list=1][*]For artist/band names with "The" in front, move it to the end with a space and a comma before it. Ex: Beatles, The or Lettermen, The
[*]For a single artist, enter it as lastname, firstname (put a space before the comma). Ex: Rogers, Kenny or Spears, Britany
[*]For multiple artists where the first Artist in the name has a first and last name, enter it as the example indicates. Ex: Rogers & Dolly Parton, Kenny[/list=1]

Following this convention will allow printing your song book by Artist lastname-first or firstname-first format. Also, when printing by songname, any songs with "The" will be under the correct alphabetic letter, such as Beatles, The will be under "B", not "T".
