@EvB63 - Lets assume you're cool with using the existing Author column for Writer.

Add a custom column using the Peoples Names 'pre-set' at the top of Add Custom Column and call it artist/Artist.

If you want one for translator Add another one, translator/Translator

If you then wanted to create composite column called say contributors/Contributors then use one of the column built from other columns types with a template something like

Code:
program: 
	list1  = re(field('authors'), ',', ';');
	list2  = re(field('#artist'),  ',', ';');
	list3  = re(field('#translator'),  ',', ';');
	list_union
	( 
		re(list1, '&', ','),
		re(list2, '&', ','),
		re(list3, '&', ','),
		','
	)
BR

Psst : you posted this is the wrong subforum - see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=122042

No matter, its your first post, a mod should come along soon and move it somewhere more suitable
