I cannot figure out how to obtain this information.

I can sort by run time, but am curious about total run time in collection

Probably something obvious I am missing

Mark Harrisobn developed a Plug-In that will give this, but trust me you don't really want to know.

You can find his database query in the Downloads/Plug-Ins section. Run it for runtime at your own risk, we will have Nurse Ratched on standby with a heavy dose of sedatives.

First - yet again thanks for the excellent advice

Second - DBQuery had exact information I was curious about, and Skip is right number is daunting

Third - I did a forum search before I posted.  I guess I should have went back further

The total running time doesn't scare me at all.  It's the total cost that freaks me out.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

I gave up looking long ago, it just became too scary. Pete thinks he likes horror.       He has NO IDEA.

Fortunately the Data Query doesn't work on my db.

Knowing the costs doesn't scare me, but that others could find out... that's another story. 

Ken should implent a "wife"-safe-mode where DVD Profiler denies to show ANY information regarding "SRP" or "paid"...

... or perhaps only the % saved (paid vs. SRP) - knowing that you're good at finding bargains might reassure the wife (in view of how they'll defend their latest shoe purchases  ).
