Create my own compilation album in itunes

[Bigeye74]

I've got loads of individual singles that i'd like to tidy up in itunes i.e. create my own album. I have edited the tags on the individual tracks but itunes still displays them each one as a seperate album. I have checked the compilation box as well and the pauseless? checkbox. Any sugggestions

Can't you just use a PlayList?

its not very tidy. The effect I want is it to look i've bought
v.a. compilation cd (like now hits 55 etc) and ripped it into itunes.

Highlight them all, and then right-click and get info.

Make sure they have the same album name in there.

That doesn't work, nor does ticking the compilation tick box. Or the gapless music tick box. Each track is still displayed as a seperate album.

I have found the answer.
Select all the tracks in the album and enter either a consistant name in the 'album artist' box or enter 'Various Artists'. This cleared the problem.
