Problems with the list Title Field
Okay, so I know I am overthinking everything here. But the default Title field of SharePoint lists has always bugged me. I rarely have a need for field named Title and sure you can rename it. But ...
You can select the "ID" column to display in your list view, which is unique and sequential number. That way user can see both the ID and Title columns.
Hope this helps.

techchirag Thanks, I dont really need the id field. I am just really wishing there was a way to delete the Title field, or for flexibility to repurpose it. Changing the type of field it is (to a calculated field for example).
I am able to work around it pretty easily right now, as stated about but that seems pretty round about. Basically renaming it to be whatever single line text field I might need.
Anyway, just looking to see if anyone had similar experience and dealt with it in a way that I haven't thought about.
