Is there a way to sort my movies so that I can keep my movies in sequence? For example: I own all 7 movies in the Harry Potter series, and would like to see them lined up in sequence (year 1 - year 7). At the moment, I cannot do this (as far as I know). A 2nd sort field would allow me to keep all my movies exactly where I want them in Coolector.

I don't understand how a second sort field would work.

A much simpler solution is just to rename the Harry Potter movies:

Harry Potter 1: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Harry Potter 2: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry Potter 3: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry Potter 4: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Harry Potter 5: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Harry Potter 6: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Harry Potter 7: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
Harry Potter 8: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

We already do that for several other sagas (Star Wars, American Pie, etc...).

Hector would need to make the changes himself when he updates the database.

Yes indeed. Please tell me if there are other titles that must be adjusted.

Harry Potter 7: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
Harry Potter 8: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

It's done.

But I've looked at the posters, and realized that the last movie of the saga should rather be called Harry Potter 7 part 2 instead of Harry Potter 8. It'll be fixed with the next update.

Also...just found out that "The One" starring Jet Li needs to be renamed. As of now, it is called "Jet Li is 'The One'". Thanks for a great program. Lovin' it!
