Second library very messy

Hi. After using Calibre for many months with a library of some 5000+ books each entered individually I decided to add another library which was to be one from a file on my hard drive. Every entry in this 1800 book library is listed by author first name, surname, name of book. When I imported this 1800 book file into Calibre it came in all over the place with book titles in the author column and authors names in the title column etc. As I am looking at the task of individually altering more than half of the entries I am wondering if I have gone about this in the wrong way and is there a way of getting the Calibre library to duplicate the file on my hard drive. The reason for asking is that I have about seven other files on my harddrive with varying number of books from several hundred to several thousand that I would like to have in Calibre but not if I have to physically go in and alter every line. Can anyone give me some advice on this point please and I would sincerely appreciate any info that can be imparted. Thanks Berni
