How to reverse Author and Title Fields

My Calibre contains numerous listings where the Author's name is in the title field and vice versa. Is there any way to reverse these fields other than individually correcting the listing?
Thanks in advance for any advice

Go to "Edit metadata in bulk" and use the "Swap title and author" option.

If you want to make this change for one book only (but still without re-typing the information), go to the regular "Edit metadata" dialog and click on the green button with little arrows, left from the Title field.

You're welcome . I'm quite new to Calibre as well and I discover options I have never seen before all the time
