That sort of worked Nyssa, but it's creating too many collections, but thanks for trying to help me.

I'm using this one, Create by Author

Metadata Plugboard

Any Format
Kindle 2
{series:|| }{series_index:0>2s|[|] - }{title}
Title

it comes out like this


Author LN, FN

Then inside

I'm all alone Author LN, FN
Stand by Myself Author LN, FN
Lambert and Butler [01] Smoking Kills Author LN, FN
Cream Cakes [06] Makes you fat Author LN, FN

where Lambert and Butler/Cream Cakes is the series and Stand AloneNovel(s)/
Smoking Kills/Makes you fat are the titles.

This is good, it's what I'm looking for, I've created a custom column called
short

series
Short
Column built from other columns
{series:shorten(4,-,4)}

which produces this

Lambert and Butler = Lamb-Butl
Cream Cakes = Crea-Cake

how do I get that onto my kindle, also does it always produce the Authors LN, FN after each book, I already know it's by that Author.

TIA.
