On notes A, B, C, G, L, M5, H33, etc, I want list all the notes that link to a primary note called A Book
. I can write the Dataview query as below and it works.
```dataview
LIST FROM [[A Book]]
SORT file.name ASC
```
However, I want to store the title of the primary note in the YAML of notes A, B, C, G, L, M5, H33, etc, such as:
---
source: "[[A Book]]"
---
Rather than creating a specific Dataview query with the title of the primary note hard-coded, I would like to create a generic Dataview query that I can paste into thousands of old notes, pulling the title of each primary note from a YAML key instead:
```dataview
LIST FROM this.file.source
SORT file.name ASC
```
This doesn’t work. I have also tried WHERE
queries without any joy.
Can it be done? I feel like it should be possible but that I am somehow not seeing an obvious answer.
Thanks for any tips.
