instead of

"Quants: How a New Breed of Math Whizzes Conquered Wall Street and Nearly Destroyed It, The - Scott Patterson [Crown Business, 2010]"

I really can't work out why it does this. Can anyone please help?
For this issue I believe the problem is the rather long title. I had a similar issue with a couple of titles that were even longer but once I shortened the title the problem disappeared.

I tried the following but it didn't work:

{category}/{title} - {authors} [{publisher}, {pubdate}]/{title} - {authors} [{publisher}, {pubdate}]

Is there any way I can implement this?

Many thanks for your help!
For this I'm going to assume that {category} is a custom column that you created. In which case you need to list it as {#category}. Any custom column needs to have the # in front of the column look-up name otherwise it can't be called correctly. Once you fix that you should get the following returned to you - Finance\Liar's Poker - Michael Lewis [W. W. Norton, 1989]\Liar's Poker - Michael Lewis [W. W. Norton, 1989]
