thanks, but my question was not clear. sorry
i have been using movie sets as you describe for some time.

what i have now is a set titled James Bond.
this set appears in the list of movies as a single entry james bond.
select and click to view the contents of the set, all my james bond movies

what i want is to have all the james bond movies appear grouped as a set but within the complete movie list.

i have tried creating a smart playlist to do this but can not get it to work so far.
any ideas?

thanks again

Hmm, possible with "sort title". Select one of the James Bond movies and bring up the context menu -> manage -> edit sort title. The sort title isn't displayed to the user, but allows you to change the alphabetical listing. So you could rename the sort title of "Dr. No" to "James Bond 1", and "From Russia with Love" as "James Bond 2", etc. They will display their original titles, they will remain searchable and all that, and only the sorting order is changed.
