Unhappy Book formats splitting up
I don't know when it happened or in which version but, going through my library I'm starting to find that in many cases the formats appear as different entries. In other words, a book will appear once in HTML or LRF format and then separately in Mobi format. Is this a bug? Is there any easy way to merge the formats so they appear as a single book?

Yes, you can merge. Select all the records, then right click | Edit Metadata | Merge-delete others.

If you turn on the autosorting option |Prefs|Add/Save|"If books with similar author and title found..." it will put the formats into a single record, or you can use the correct Add Book option to do this if you are entering them at the same time.
