To add cover scans to CB, the only requirement is it has to be .JPG format. You can drag/drop the file on the exact Title/Issue number and it will rename it for you to the correct name. (which is why you have to drop it on the exact issue number). OR You can rename the .jpg file to the correct issue number in which case, you just have to drag/drop it on to the grid area. NOTE: To rename the .jpg file use exactly what the issue number except where there is a 'slash' ( / ) which is replaced with a 'dash' ( - ) since a windows file name can not contain a 'slash'. examples: Item # Cover Scan ------- -------------- 1 1.jpg 1 HC 1 HC.jpg 1/A 1-A.jpg 1/A-2 1-A-2.jpg

That is not a correct impression. If it is added to the master database, it will have values changed just like any other issue. If the cover is acceptable and another larger one doesn't already exist, it will be accepted and available to be downloaded. (However, for variants, it wouldn't hurt to contact the editors since it is possible that variant letter has already been assigned. For example, some one has a new variant and uses the next letter (H for example) and is accepted. In the same period between Content Updates, you have a different variant, see that the last variant letter is G and also submit an H variant. Someones update would need to be changed to a different variant letter which can cause confusion.)

If the Find works to display the rows you want to change, you can use Quick Change to set the Qty to 0 also. Exporting to Excel, making changes, then Importing back should work, also (but I would test on a copy to be sure first).

Before I suggest a method, it may be best for you to create a copy of your database to test with to make sure it does what you want. 'File->Save a Copy' then give it a name and open that new copy. -------------------------- Need a little more information. What Edition of CB do you have? (Express, Pro or Archive) (I will assume Pro or Archive as they have Advanced Find) 1) For the Issues removed, has the QTY value been set to 0? 2) When removing box number from the Custom Field, do you want ALL of that number removed? For example, if a Find for Custom Field = 'AC' would you want all issues found to have it removed or would there be some issue you do not want it removed? 3) If the above answer is 'Yes I want all occurrences of box number 'AC' to be removed, would be true for all the various box numbers? If the answers are 'Yes all the QTY have been set to 0, this should be possible. If the answers are 'No all the Qty have not been set to 0 but the various Box number values would ALL be removed, this should be possible. If the answers are 'No all the Qty have not been set to 0 but the various Box number values would NOT ALL be removed, then it may not be possible (or at least, difficult). A) All Qty have been set to 0: Advanced Find Where: I.Qty = 0 AND I.Custom Field 1 (or whatever the field name is) IN ('x1', 'x2', 'x3, (etc. until you list all the various box number values) ) B) All specific box number values are to be deleted: I.Custom Field 1 (or whatever the field name is) IN ('x1', 'x2', 'x3, (etc. until you list all the various box number values) ) C) Qty = 1 but only some of the box number values would be deleted: The same Advanced Find for 'B' would work but you would have to manually select the ones to be deleted For A and B, after the Find Result rows are displayed: Select All rows. Right-Click and select Quick Change from the pop-up menu. Select Change drop-down When the result rows are displayed, Select All rows, right-click and select the Custom Field. Leave the 'TO:' box blank Click Make Changes Let me know if you need any clarification.

This has been fixed with v3088.

Try this: I.CoverArtist = 'John Byrne' AND I.Variation <> 'NS' AND I.CoverPrice < 5.00 (I wasn't sure if you really meant less that 4.99 or less than or equal to 4.99. You can change 5.00 to the value you really want.)

I followed you through 'click Preview'. At that point, my system displayed a 'Crystal Report' display of the preview (not a PDF). See first attachment. From that window, I can: A) Click the first icon in top-left corner and save to a file (Crystal Report, PDF, CSV, various Microsoft Excel and Word formants, RTF and XML). B) Click the second icon and Print and it brings up a Print window (this is probably specific to a computer/print you have or it may be a Windows print window). It has a 'More Settings' link which brings up my specific Printer dialog window where I can change to print to labels. See second attachmet. Not sure if any of this will help or not.

I just tried to recreate (sort of) what you described above. I don't have a label printer and used my normal printer instead. I did get any printer option asking me about the paper type. This may be because I don't have a label printer but it could also mean the dialog box for paper type may be from the label printer instead of CB. Can you describe the steps you took and what dialog boxes appeared (screen prints of the dialog boxes would be nice)?

Go to the ComicBase website. Under My Account, select Backups. Assuming you have saved a Backup to the cloud, there will be a drop-down box with at least one Datababase name (with the date/time the back up was made). Choose one of the Backups. Click Download.

My guess is 'Patriotika' (correct publisher) but there is no matching issue in the database for it. 'Patriotika (2nd Series)' is published by Antarctic. The other (blue) one, is probably 'Patriotika United' (publisher Antarctic) or 'Patriotika United (Mount Olympus)' but have a matching issue.

According to an eBay listing the purplish background seems to be: Patriotika #2 Josh Burns Retailer Exclusive Virgin Cover LTD 100 https://www.ebay.com/itm/266588391013 This is the most likely one. Of note, eBay UK has a bluish background of the same image listed as: Patriotika United #1 Wild Webs of Arcane Josh Burns Variant Virgin Cover LTD 100 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/176606049487

I believe that was an error on the programmers' part where a 'working' build was accidentally sent out. If you download a newer version (current is v2979), they should display/work correctly.
