In the menus? MP3 sort by track

Long time vinyl listener here, albums just don't quite sound right out of order!

For a couple of hours I've been through my Rockbox 3.13 Sansa Clip 2GB menus, and searched the Audio Playback, Database and Playlists Forum and I can't find a way to:

Display songs by track number order
Play songs in track number

I've found and tested sorting options in the menu but none of them worked.  After reading forum threads here it looks like people use track # sorting but they've run into issues like triple digits and handling leading zeros. 

My music is custom tagged by me using Mp3tag and the tags are reliable on other devices and software. 

Will I need to resort to playlists?

First, you're running a 3 year old build.  Update.

Second, if you go to the file browser, files are sorted alphabetically.  If you go to the database, they're sorted by tag.  It sounds like you want to use the database.

Daddy-O:
You beat me to it, thanks!  I was hoping to write a "thanks but never mind" post.

Notice I didn't mention reading the manual.  So I cracked the manual as soon as I found it.  YES, I was in file browser.  Database view is perfect.

As for my build, when I am at the root of this website and click "release" under downloads in the top left corner it links to a page that starts with "Rockbox 3.13 Rockbox 3.13 was released on 05 March 2013."  ---I thought that was the latest build.   ---Suggestions?

saratoga:
We haven't gotten around to doing a new release in years, so you should grab the current build instead, which is updated constantly.

Daddy-O:
As well as everything is maintained around here I'll take it for granted it's stable.  Already downloaded it. --Thanks
