This thread has taken a major turn! As much as I appreciate the interesting conversation about various Linux distributions, command line vs GUI etc, the intent of my post was to simply offer anyone who wanted to play with an alternate interface into the KOBO database a starting point within MSAccess (including the I'M Reading removal sql already integrated). I was very clear on the limitations and that I was not proposing a replacement for Calibre or any such thing. It did works very well as a GUI to remove or reset the I'm Reading books as well as the core to a different to view and/or play with the DB that could be used to add or do more things if someone wanted to explore or experiment. It would also be easy to add more functionality (which I have already done for my use), but I never suggested it was a major step forward or for everyone.
