Todd Norris Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I have been adding my own cover images of my collection as I archive my collection. I am currently using the 2021 Professional edition. When I come across an issue with lots of variants, how do I successfully name the image so that CB recognizes it and applies it to the line item for that issue. Example, Action Comics 1000, there are a ton of variants and let's say CB lists the issue I want as 1000/A-24, how would you name the file so that database line item recognizes the image and applied itself? I have tried anything I can think of, but maybe some of you gurus out there have a trick up your sleeve that has eluded me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven L. Dasinger Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Basic rule for naming objects (covers or digital): Replace anything that isn't alpha (a-z), numeric (0-9) or a dash (-) with a dash. (or just replace slashes(/) with a dash for the short version). (since the files are named with the DOS restrictions, any character that can't be used in a Windows file name needs to be converted to a dash.) Example: 1000/A-24 would be 1000-A-24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
