Hello, All:

I was just about to add a new custom column "Read Order" which would allow me to keep track of recommended reading order for a series of books by the same author. I wondered if somewhere there is an explanation of the various column types? Specifically, I wondered what the type: "Text column for keeping series-like information" does? I chose that type and entered a '1'. It came out as a "1 [1]". When I added more, I got "2 [1]" and 3 [1]. I obviously don't understand what this type is doing and I could not find anything either in here or in the manual to explain it.

Thanks in advance.
