Hello there. I'm new to calibre and just start figuring out what owesome stuff I can do with it. But at the moment I'm kind of lost. The solution is right in front of me, but I don't understand it. Please help.
I have kind of the same problem as SRS. The bookseries has 2800+ books. The Index is nicely done, starting at 1 and ending around 2800. The sorting problem is mentioned by SRS.
Because I don't mind starting the series with 0001, is there a way to add 3 zeros to the first 9, 2 zeros till 99 and 1 zero to 999? And with the Metadata Editor?
I have absolutely no idea how to get a python script working. So that's no option, sadly.

Thx 4 F1.
