Beckett Message Boards

I am a player collector (Paul Goldschmidt). Today I finally broke down and purchased OPG. Previously I used a "fancy" Excel sheet to keep track of my collection.

Today I went into organize, searched on Paul Goldschmidt and created a list in OPG. However, I am a little confused on the order that Beckett puts the list in. They are in order by year and then description but why would they have

2012 Bowman #8
2012 Bowman Blue #8
2012 Bowman Chrome #131
(Then there are several chrome cards.)
2012 Bowman Gold #8

I get that the G in Gold comes after C in Chrome but I REALLY feel they should be in order by subset. Is there any work around for this?

Cards are listed by year then alphabetical. I agree for example that all Bowman then Bowman Chrome cards should be listed. I'm not sure there's a way around this other than creating a collection for each set. Thats the way I'm setting up my Phillies pc.

Wilson, would you mind sharing a copy of the "fancy" excel sheet?

I can...it really wasn't all that fancy. (My favorite part is the last page.) I went through my sheet and grouped together by subset the best I could. I grouped them and then put then in order by card number. For the most part this put my list in order.

I guess the question is why can't OPG be smart enough to group the list like Beckett Magazine print does.
