Once I get get the slug of books in, this custom sort column will be deleted.
Sometimes old school pencil and paper is easiest.
Assumes a 'root folder' to your first name

I ran the following from a command prompt
Code:
C:\Users\thedu>dir C:\Users\BigHD\Public2\MainLib > foo.lst
Substitute the path to the 'root location'. foo.lst is the redirected output (the > ) and can be anyplace/name.
Simply print the file: and scratch thru the ones done.

Dir /S will list all child files (dir /? lists all the switches you can use)
