I was trying to cheat

Thanks Chaley and Davidfor.
I was hoping that creating a column that acted like tags, so the Kobo Touch driver would accept it. It did not accept the kindle collection column that I have which used "Column built from other columns" and noticed that the Kobo Touch requires a column based on tags.
I got excited that it actually worked sort of. I was hoping there was just something small I missed.
Any ideas on a workaround for this?
Only thing I can think of, is if there is a way to ignore the comma or combine the authors name into one column "Stephanie Landsem" and then combine that with the series name to achieve the desired "Stephanie Landsem - The Living Water" but then it would sort it by "S" rather then the "L" once on the Kobo.
