hi
My Dad has just been given a CD of 4000 free books for his Kindle. I wanted to create a full list for him that's grouped by author (the disk is A-Z on book title).
I thought I'd be able to look at the contents of the disk in my computer and copy the list and just paste in Excel but it just won't paste. I'm not great technically and I'm not sure if the data won't paste because of the .mobi file type or if it's a restriction on the disc.

Any help much appreciated as I really don't want to manually type a list of 4000 books!!!

Thanks
