I was wondering if there is a way to list all the actors and actresses in order by the amount of times they are in my collection.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Actually this is in the program already,, when you 'bring up' any title of the said  actor/actress/ director/or 'crew member' .. click on that name and a box will will appear with all the titles they are associated with., The box will also have a 'jump button' to hop to that title in question. Plus the ability to sort the titles for production years/ title or release date.

As far as I understand the question (which is clearly not how Terry understands it) - no, it is not possible.

It would require a plugin, or working from the exported XML file - noth solutions require some programming skills to be implemented.

Oh, I see.  they want to see all 2000 (whatever) actors/actress on the screen at once..,
I know when you want to edit studios or names in the data base, I'm not too sure if the names are all names in master data base or just the names that have been downloaded back to your profiler., if so that way you should be able to see all actors etc, but not the titles they are in only the names.
My explainantion above here I provided is one way.. .
and the only easiest way at this point of the game.

I think what is asked for here is to have a listing, how often specific actors appear in a collection but not one at a time, but a list of the actors. Something like the TOP 25 actors.
This can for example be done in my Viewer via SQL queries.

Appearances Name
26 Drew Barrymore
19 Tom Hanks
19 Desmond Llewelyn
19 Arnold Schwarzenegger
18 John Cleese
17 William Shatner
17 Jack Black
17 Jim Carrey
16 Frank Welker
16 Ben Stiller
16 Ben Affleck
15 Rance Howard
15 Christopher Walken
15 Bruce Willis
15 Bill Murray
15 Adam Sandler
15 Kevin Smith
15 Michael J. Fox
14 Steve Buscemi
14 Clint Howard
14 Chris Ellis
14 Colleen Camp
14 Lois Maxwell
14 Mike Myers
14 Matt Damon

Also, is there a way to search for a specific single actor to list his movies or do I have to go to a movie that I know he is in and click his name for a list?

Not in DVD Profiler as far as I know.

I have downloaded your program, but I didn't found how to edit the list...

After you have imported your Profiler collection XML and downloaded the already available SQL queries (File->Update->Other data), you can send SQL queries via Tools->SQL queries.
I used my SQL query called "TOP 25 actors without Genre 'Television'".
You can copy the result via right-click->Copy to clipboard.

I got it ! Amazing...  Thanks very much
