So I've decided to back up all of my MP3s on to my computer after a mild MP3 player disaster. I opted for Windows Media Player 11.
Anyway I was importing music Artist by Artist, and the library looked like this

Then I looked away from the screen and clicked something and everything looks like this

How do I fix it?

Click Artist in the column on the left. Under Hickabod.

The bottom picture is what my WMP Library looks like, and the top picture is what my MP3 Player Library looks like. When I click Library under Hickabod I get taken to my MP3 library which has a different format that I want to get back on my WMP Library.
You were on the mp3 one in the first picture, that's the way the wmp one usually looks.

You should get it how you want if you follow Ben's directions. Though my best advice would be to use iTunes or Winamp.

No, I have 2 Libraries, one with all of my MP3s on my computer, and one that displays the MP3s on my player. They both displayed the same as the top picture until I clicked something on the WMP Library which makes it now display like the bottom picture. Some how since I posted that they have both started displaying the same as the bottom picture with the
A----
*Band* *Band* *Band*
B----
*Band* *Band*
C----
*Band* *Band*
ect.
Which is ugly as hell.
The top picture shows what my MP3 Player Library looks like, and the bottom picture shows what my WMP Library looks like, I want them to both display in the same format as the top picture, sorry for any confusion.
Doing what Ben surgested would only take me to my MP3 Player Library. This would not fix the display change in my WMP Library.
I'm pretty sure you can't change that if you want to keep it in abc order.

Thanks for all the help, guys. After playing with WinAmp for under a minute I've fallen completely in love with it. I'm giving up with WMP and I'm going to use WinAmp instead.
Thanks again.
