Thanks so much for your help!! I am now officially a happy camper and see all my books in Calibre as intended, including a checkmark for read and the date plus my ratings.

The secret (at lest to me) was to install Calibre with defaults, install Kindle for PC, download all books listed in Kindle for PC, Add Books in Calibre (from "My documents/My Kindle Content"), add columns in Calibre. restart Calibre and update custom metadata. I suspect it's one of those things that once done is simple but the first time is questionable - pretty much like everything else done the first time.

Thanks again.
