Hi, I'm a new calibre user and I'm really fascinated about its power tricks...

Nevertheless I cannot make a search, a restriction, a custom column or whatever other kind of "filter" to select my translated vs. original language books.

I've added two custom columns two my database (they're tags-like columns):
+ Language (#language). Language of the e-book (only "Spanish" or "English", I cannot read anything else

)
+ Original Language (#original_language). The original Language of the book (much more languages used

).

Then my Translated e-books would be those where #language is not equal to #original_language.

How can I achieve this?

Thank you in advance.
