This topic has been on the list before - the only solution which I have
seen that would work without causing more problems is to create a new
reference type for edited books (modify one of the types which you are
never likely to want), and then use this type for all edited books,
inserting the editors as authors. The work-around which I compromised on
was to ignore the problem until the final draft, then remove the links
to RM, and re-sort the bibliography. I couldn't face going through all
the books on my database and revising the document type!
It is caused by RM sorting on "authors 1" rather than "any authors".
Hope you find a suitable solution
