I'm fairly new to Drupal, so please excuse me if I'm asking something obvious. I've created a content type that has a field containg the ISBN number. When I create content, save and display it, it appears as expected with the cover, title, etc. Now, I would like to have the same display when I specify the ISBN field in a View with the View module. I get a blank. Should this work and, if so, is there something I need to do? Thanks very much.

Sorry, I was able to determine the problem. It displays fine with Views. My next challenge is to figure out how I can sort the view based upon the title or author and not the ISBN. Thanks for your help.

Manually enter the title or author in the node title field and sort by that field in views (but don't select title or author as a field to be displayed unless you want it displayed twice).

Manually enter all the information?! Doesn't that defeat the entire point of using this module? Why would you need a module to retrieve all the information automatically if you can't actually do anything with any of it and have to re-enter it all manually anyway?
