Or maybe a tab you can customize yourself

I would like to see a tab for "Previously Owned" so I can keep track of which discs were lost, stolen, sold or given away.

I don't want just a new tab, I think it would be great if we can create our own tabs... maybe make some new ones too like a sale/trade. but to be able to create your own lists would be nice.  I would love to move my tv shows to a new list, and keep them seperate from my movies as a personal preference, I'm sure some might agree, some might not, which is why I think it would be awesome to be able to create your own.

why don't you just put these dvds into a separate database instead of a separate tab?

Bit long winded having to backup and restore the profiles between the databases isn't it? Plus you can't see them all in one place.

What is wrong with "Open Database" from the File menu...?

Not going against the request, just pointing out that backup restore is not needed for pauls42's suggestion.

I admit, I was not thinking very clearly with my previous response...

I have some DVDs in my 'default' database. I no longer want to keep these, I want to put them up for sale. How do I transfer these profiles into my 'for sale' database? I choose "Open Database" to load the 'for sale' database, and then what? Enter them from scratch again by UPC? Re-do any custom edits I may have made to the profiles?

I have a load of profiles for films that I've recorded from TV. so I entered them originally in v2.4/5 - then transferred the lot to v3 (default database).

In order to produce a new database I just used the file menu to create a copy of the existing database under a new name - tvrecorded.

Then open the newly created database - and use the filters to select all the profiles I didn't want and delete them 'en masse'.

result - i new database with only a 100 or so profiles. All uptodate in v3.

in order to remove them from the previous database just open database (the original file). Filter the ones you don't want to delete - and delete all selected again. (using flags etc).

Then, the other issue. Think about the potential buyers and traders that I need to show the 'for sale' list of DVDs to. I'd need to create a second Invelos account and pay for a new registration key, so that they can see what's in this second database and thus put yet another link in my signature. The DVDs would also have to be listed under Owned, Ordered or Wishlist in the new database, none of which is technically correct and rather confusing for those clicking.

if its just a small number then you could create a free account can't you? Not sure how many you could load up to the web with free account of course.


and no backup/restore.. 

I'm just bumping this a little to see if anyone else is still wanting to see this come true.
