How to only store year for publication date.
I read on some post once (on a different subject) that it was possible to only store the year for the publication date.

I can't find the post, so I can't ask the author how he did it.

If anyone know's how to do this I would appreciate a post.

Thanks.

I too would like to know how to do this. Currently, I just set the month to January, but I'd really like to store/display just the year.

As is always the case when you reply: That worked.

I love the way Calibre Companion picks this up automagically.

Thanks.
