Thanks itimpi! I appreciate your speedy reply!

OK....

Yes, I use IE, as do several members of my family who will be using the library. Way too many books to try to rename them all!

This sounds like the best option for my large (and still growing) library. HOW, exactly do I do this?? Is there a specific code that needs to go somewhere? And, once done, does whatever this is need to be redone every time I generate a new library?

Rats! Hope s/he wakes up soon!

Sure would be a nice-to-have function!

Is there a list of the various options you can check/modifications/customizations you can make on the different tabs within the GUI? I start looking at these tabs and my eyes glaze over (even with the pop-up explanations). My erstwhile coding skills are about 30 years out of date!
