@speakingtohe: Hi Helen,
First of all thank you for taking time on this problem
Then you are also right: Using Calibre is the obvious solution. It wouldn't be so hard to build a csv file from the library. Actually, I quite like the idea.
My tests on loading the sdcard is quite different from yours. How many documents have you ?
Nevertheless, and still being a bit sarcastic toward Kobo folks, I believe that an electronic device, meant exclusively to store ebooks, could eventually possess an author index as one of the basic functionality.
But of course, the day developers will implement it, I bet we will have a 7 names by page formatting... It will take me ten days swiping the screen before I get to Stendhal.
Anyway, I guess the sql solution would be something like:
Code:
Select Distinct attribution from content
(not sure about the capitals though)
