Title: Group By Question

@connersw,
a long time ago you offered this helpful post about Group by.

Yep.  I use custom Group By fields for all my views.  If anyone is interested, here they are:

Group By Album

Code: [Select]

[Album] [[Year]]Delimit([Description,0],/],/ /[) - [Album Artist (Auto)]
Group By Artist

Code: [Select]

[Album Artist (Auto)] - [Album] [[Year]]Delimit([Description,0],/],/ /[)
Group By Date

Code: [Select]

[[Year]] [Album]Delimit([Description,0],/],/ /[) - [Album Artist (Auto)]
Note: I use the Description field to distinguish between different versions of the same Album (ie SACD, Vinyl rip, etc).  If the field is populated, it shows up, otherwise nothing is displayed.

Please tell me how I make this View.
thanks,

The wiki tells you how to customize views.  Start with a right click where you want to put it.

When I try Group By > More > Custom ....MC crashes.
Yes I have all the Virus stuff at al correctly dealt with - did that ages ago.
Tried Exit, reboot PC, Open and MC still crashes. Grrhh.
