Hello the ducks,
No, I have confused this issue. Your suggestion results in finding duplicates in the sub-library which I can do by going to the sub-library and running "Find Duplicates" and removing them as required.
When I download books/magazines I put them all in the main Calibre library. I then go through and transfer any that relate to one of my sub-libraries. If there are a few to transfer I go through and highlight them. When selected are highlighted I right-click one of them. select copy to library, select the sub-library I want and choose the 'delete after copy' option.
This may comes back and tell me there are duplicate books in the sub-library. What I want is for this response to highlight in the main library those books/magazines that have struck a duplicate in the sub-library. Otherwise the problem arises if there are many duplicates that I have to try and remember a long list of say magazines which disappears when I decide to close the transfer. I need to delete from the main library as they are already in the sub-library.
I know the alternative would be to download relative books directly to the sub-library and letting it tell me about duplicates which I then do not download them. The trouble of this option is that it can be very hard to decide prior to download whether a book/magazine belongs to either one sub-library or another eg WWI or WWII .
Cheers
