Thanks Miss LeBrat,
I managed to do it by exporting to txt, then using a program to make txt files based off a list. Then it was just a case of using the built in import tool, author title and series etc. then I just swapped Author to Item, Title to Descrip and series to price. Hiding all columns I didn't need after that and all is great.
Works great for what I want it to do.
I'm a great believer in having multifunctional devices, programs, tools etc (minimalist - and anti consumer culture)
@theducks
"anyone who makes fine furniture will use dedicated tools "
Point seems to be flying high
Me wanting to pop in 50 odd entries for exe's to have them organised and easily viewable, searchable is not comparable to a fine furniture maker.
(I have to side with the Calibre developers.)
I didn't know kiwidude - represents the entirety of the Calibre development community
There are plenty of use cases for using a multi-purpose tool than going to the expense of a one off highly specialised item, esp if the usage requirement is minimal
If you rarely took photos and occasionally listened to mp3's - you would be more than happy with a smart phone - you would not go buy an ipod and a Digital SLR (despite them being obviously better for the intended purpose)
Anyway all besides the point jobs done, thanks for all you help.
I still belive there is great opportunity for a DaterBase with separate front-ends esp open sorce, but will gladly agree to disagree with your opinions on the matter
