Batch Set Tracks Sorting Tags v1.0
Obligatory warning: This script has been designated as a "Retro Script" and there is no guarantee that it will function as described with modern versions of iTunes and OS X and may even corrupt or destroy data.
This script will allow you to batch-set the sorting tags ("Sort Name", "Sort Artist", "Sort Album Artist", "Sort Album", "Sort Composer", "Sort Show") of the selected tracks, rather than manually doing so one track at a time or globally using "Apply Sort Field". Requires iTunes 7.1 or better.
Designated as a Retro Script because iTunes multi-edit dialog now includes sort tags.
(Note: In order to launch this PowerPC-era script on an Intel machine, it must first be opened and then saved using AppleScript Editor, which is located in your /Applications/Utilities/ folder. More information is here.)
Action shot:

"Batch Set Tracks Sorting Tags" will allow you to set the various new Sorting tags of a selection of tracks, rather than entering text one track at a time.
