Hi Folks,
I have 181 books I want to change the title of each book by Prepending the tag {Series} to {title}

e.g. I start with

Original Title: This is the first book
which is book 1 of series 'Test' and end up with

New Title: Test [1] This is the first book

I have searched the forum and the Manual (for 'sub' and Prepend etc) but can't work out what I need.

Any suggestions - I started to do the changes by hand, but there is so many, and this is just the 1st set of many too.
