There's no such an option for Virtual Shelf mode unfortunately.

Could you explain everything in more detail?
Best regards,
That's too bad about the Virtual Shelf. Might this be forthcoming in an update? Just curious as this functionality works as expected in AllMyMovies.
As for the export, the probelm occurred after I attempted about 5 exports to excel. As stated earlier, the exported results varied, though the export criteria and data remained the same. Now, for some reason, the instnat I choose "export to excel" the criteria dialog box appears with all the critera boxes in a "white-out" state - meaning there's nothing there, and AllMyBooks hangs and then crashes.
I do have my book database residing on a server (not locally) and I thought this might be causing the problem. But it behaves exactly the same with the test database that came with the program that is stored locally, so I'm not sure what's going on.
Anyway, thanks for your prompt response. I hope the info I've given may shed some light on the issue.
