Thanks, I saw that yesterday, but haven't found a good description in the help files, but another user offered this in a seperate post:

"It monitors a folder and imports the new files, then deletes them from the monitored folder. It also has a duplicates-checking option. Go to Preferences > Adding Books > click over to the Automatic Adding tab."

I was hoping to be able to assign tags based on where in the folder structures I put something. for example : Fiction->Manuals->Samsung->GalaxyS is where I'd put the galaxyS manual and the software would apply tags "Fiction, Manuals, Samsung, GalaxyS" . So the solution is not exactly what I had hoped for, but it may do the trick, I'll play around and see how workable this'll be.

Thanks,
C
