Thank you DWIG and DoctorOhh. You both are right, but I was not looking at the folder to see if there was a change after matching the Author and Author Sort fields. I had one folder with one book of the SD Tanner author and a bunch of books in a folder Tanner, SD. I changed the SD Tanner author fields to the Tanner, SD and exited Calibre. I then looked at the folders in the library. Calibre moved the one book to the other folder and deleted the SD Tanner folder. I probably was accomplishing what I wanted but wasn't checking the folder contents to see if the book had been moved. Seeing the folder I assumed it was still there, but it probably had a second book with mismatched author fields.

Once again, thank you for the tips.
