(My bold and edit.)

When I tried to add directly from the Kindle, it seems that Calibre first copied the file to my personal Windows temp space which is pretty deep in the tree. I copied the file to C:\Temp and renamed it to Works of Wilkie Collins and dragged and dropped it into Calibre and had no problems.

A weird thing... I was originally adding these books as I bought them, and had problems with six or seven of them. For the sake of experimenting, I just added all of the books on this Kindle to a new library and only had problems with three. Go figure.

Thanks to all who replied.
