The help might be out of date, but, I thought that would be there. I'll have to check and update it.
Thanks - that's great. Worked like a charm!

One (I think!) final follow-up question. In all the documentation, and on this forum, can I ask precisely what "device database" refers to? I mean, should I understand it to include everything - collections and series information, reading progress for each book, bookmarks, highlights, annotations, etc. (i.e. all metadata)? Or is it more limited than that?

EDIT: And, by extension, is it possible in principle to back all of that information up within Calibre, and then restore it on, say, a new device. And, if so, does that device have to be exactly the same model - or would it work when switching to a different model of Kobo reader?
