I thought I tried the triple-slash first, but the name I was using had a space and I think the GetLink gadget in FileTools or the Makelink gadget in Calibre misplaced the %20 - I need to test that again - 2 mora.

With tripleslash & no spaces it works perfectly, folders and files - that means I can turn Calibre into a Yet Another WiNdows explorer (YAWN)

In the All-In-One Metadata layout I could not see how to display the HTML for a Long Text Custom Column, in the Default Layout there's a tab at the bottom of the control - like the one for the Comments control. Also the Column Name for Long Text Column is not displayed in Book Details.

Kovid : Re Links to a Book in a Calibre Library, sure I can get to the Book Folder via a file: URI, but how do I get to the Book Details panel from there? I don't want to lose context of the book I'm "on".
