That is indeed what I was saying.

This means that both the author and author_sort columns are LN, FN.
Yes. Given that, I am now **assuming** I should be adding/substituting the "BuiltinSwapAroundComma" function you gave me into this line of code in my calibre jacket template:

Code:
<td class="cbj_author" colspan="2">{author}</td>
Where and exactly how should I change that, please? Indeed is that even where I need to add the function?? I have tried various things with {author}, none of which works for me. Should I have a value(s) between the parentheses in

Code:
 {author:swap_around_comma()}
and if so what?

Previously, I had added a hidden column containing FN LN (sans comma) and called that from my jacket template, but I am darned if I can remember or find out how to add that second author column correctly. Again, I have tried various things (adding custom column) to no useful avail. I think BetterRed helped me out, but can't find the relevant thread.

Sorry to be so dim. Old age is a b**ch.
