However when I read these files from the card each book is a folder with multiple files of unrecognizable denomination (not .txt etc). I really don't know what to do at this point. I am only a minor techno, heck I don't even know if what I am attempting is possible (logically it should be). Can anyone help me here?

It is possible to convert the entire RES folder back into an IMP file and then you can use the Librarian to change the category. The REB1200 group on Yahoo has a download that can be used to convert the file.

Fictionwise books are delivered via IMP. Ebookwise file are delivered directly. You might check the Fictionwise site for books you have purchased on the Ebookwise site to see if they can be downloaded from Fictionwise. I generally purchase on Fictionwise to bein with and then they can be imported to the online bookshelf on Ebookwise if you want direct load.

The only other way would be to edit the binary file in the RES folder that contains the category.
