see this thread from 2009:

> Have done a search, and I'm sure it's covered, but I haven't found a step by step for a newbie like me. I have my music tagged, but would like to add SORTARTIST to flac files. Can someone please explain exactly what steps to follow to add this so "Eric Clapton" shows as "Clapton, Eric", etc? Thanks for the help and patience...
and this one to move "the" to the end:

> First, thanks for this great software. I have searched the various topics but cannot find an answer for this... I want to move all the word THE at the beginning of all ARTIST fields to become (The) at the end of the field. I can use the tool to change the case OK, but how do you move the word to the end of the ARTIST name? So becomes \. Many thanks
