Nyssa,

When you populated the file name for your test, what did you use? On my Kindle Paperwhite, the original file structure looks something like:

Kindle ( F: )\documents\{book_title}_{ASIN}.sdr

is the name of the folder the book is in. But, inside that, there are two .azw3 files of the format:

{book_title}_{ASIN}{cruft}.azw3* (where the cruft appears to be the uuid and the * is either a f or an r for the book I'm looking at).

I assume we don't have to specify "F:\documents". But, did you:

1) use the folder name: {book_title}_{ASIN}.sdr (minus the .sdr)
2) use the full path name to the .azw3 files inside that folder: book_title}_{ASIN}.sdr\{book_title}_{ASIN}{cruft}
3) or use just the unqualified name of one of the .azw3 files: {book_title}_{ASIN}{cruft}?
