Hi,

It seems I was using the boxset case type incorrectly in my report to determine if a title is a boxet.  It is now renamed slip case in 3.1.

However, I use the boxset type in my reports to present the main box differently. How can I test now if a title is a boxset?

Thanks

I'm not too sure exactly how your report works, but could you not just get it to look for "slip case" instead of "boxset"?

Yes, I can do it, no problem 

But I was trying to see if I could do it better, as I am not always accurate in the type of case for my boxsets.

Thanks

First off, this suggestion is for local use only:

Several possibilities to achieve what you want:

1. Use the Edition Field and enter "Box Set"

2. Amend "Box Set" to the actual title

3. Use "Slip Caser" and start looking for that (and try to explain to your friend that in DVDP a Box Set is called Slip Case (good luck with the second part...) )

I personally have been doing this by using # 1 or # 2 for the past couple of years, especially since the title field is very easy to set up correctly and won't need any updates in the future once done, so no harm in locking it down for good.

Thanks. I can try one of those.

I still think it would be great to have a filter on this, as well as the children. In DVDP, it seems reports get little attention...
