Thanks for quick reply.
I don't think that the problem I'm having is connected to simultaneous access, but as you point out, more a difference in the way the Linux and Windows versions behave. However I think that the simplest short term solution is to use VirtualBox and install Calibre in a Windows 7 guest. Much quicker than a reboot. So far all seems well and it saves having to create duplicate libraries ... a definite nightmare.
I keep an eye on how it goes and let you know.
Thanks again.
