It occurred to me that an easy way to build the data was to use clippings to capture of the titles of each work - which also gets me the bibliograpic information. Then put the author and standard title abbreviation in the tag area, sort on the tag and export the data. This would work if I could sort of the tags - a function that should be available.

    Does this mean that you'll be publishing a comprehensive list of what's available in the CUA ECFs vs. Schaff in the near future?

    Not in the near future - I'm just starting to explore an efficient way to do it based on Migne.

    'Twas only wishful thinking.

    Are you planning to do all of Migne?
