Deleting in-book Searches, and Identical Books (Different Formats)
HI
I've recently downloaded Calibre and am seriously impressed. I have two questions that I haven't yet managed to find the answer to. 1. How do I get Calibre to recognise that two books are the same but in different formats? I have editted the meta-data for the two so that they are the same (author, title, tags, rating, publisher etc.) but I don't seem to get the option when opening of which format to view. 2. How do I delete/reset the search data in a book? I can see how to do it on the main library screen - but I mean on the top right of the ebook viewer. It seems to be the same set of search data for all books - so doesn't seem to be in that specific books metadata - but can't find a reset button. Many thanks for any help! |

If you have two (or more) book records then you can merge them by selecting them and using the Merge option from the right-click menu. |

Thanks for that. I have merged my book records with no problems - and am really pleased.
Does anyone know how to delete the search data within books? Many thanks. |

you can't. Why do you care? New searches will gradually replace the old ones.
