I was in my search/replace and clicked on my main one (for this process) to look at something,, then went over and auto set author sort, hit apply,,
I didn't realize, to my own sadness,, it would run the search and replace that was in the other tab,,
So, I overwrote the series with the author on 1500 books,, great
Now, I am under the impression there is no way to undo what I just did,, so the first step to me fixing it is removing the authors from the series so I can just put series in later,,
Sooo after all of that,, is there a way to search through for values that are the same in author and series?
I've edited a LOT of books today so I can't just sort by edit date and remove series,,
Appreciate the help,, and that's one mistake I won't make again - Sigh
