Thanks for the offer. I can make the CSV file look like whatever you like. I have provided an example with line 1 as field names and the other three lines individual books, one book per line.
The file I have created is a tab separated file without delimiters, but I can change anything at all. I can also add other fields if necessary.


Code:
Title	Author	ISBN	Front Cover
The Meccano System Compendium	Gamble, Jim	9780904568158	C:\Documents and Settings\Stephen\My Documents\Collectorz\Book Collector\Images\The Meccano System Compendium 3010_f.bmp
Frank Hornby - the boy who made $1,000,000 with a toy	Gould, Maurice Philip	9780904568011	C:\Documents and Settings\Stephen\My Documents\Collectorz\Book Collector\Images\Frank Hornby - Gould, Maurice 6250_f.bmp
The Products Of Binns Road	Randall, Peter	9780904568066	C:\Documents and Settings\Stephen\My Documents\Collectorz\Book Collector\Images\The Products Of Binns Road - R2901_f.bmp
What I want to do is match an existing book based on author/title/isbn and add the picture to the calibre library to show in the browser as the front cover of the book. This will presumably include copy the picture to the correct folder in the library.
