thanks Bob, yes I did, but when I saw that the "Refresh..." command would update the device (or so I understood), I got scared, as I just spent a day fixing things broken by a hack gone bad. But I did use the "Match book to Library" to find the "missing" books.
I also have a custom columns "Bought from Kobo" (now it does not sound too grammatical - maybe it should be "Bought at Kobo") that I use to identify the "backup" Kobo books in Calibre, and this also helps.
Anyhow, thanks again!
