But when I connect my Libra 2 to Calibre I get what looks like a filename instead of Unread, Reading, or Finished.

What am I doing wrong?

I did manage to get the column based on percent read that PeterT created to work, although I can't figure out how to get it to register 99 and above as Finished, just 100.

Ignore the filenames entirely, that's for internal use when restoring the reading position.

A 'column based on other columns' with this template should get what you want.

program:

	if ($$#percentread >=#1 && $$#percentread <=#99)
	then 'Reading' 

	elif $$#percentread >=#100
	then 'Finished' 

	elif $$#percentread == 'None'
	then '' 

	elif $$#percentread >=#0
	then 'Unread' 

	fi
