Is there a way to pull a "Name" formatted column into a Column, Built from Other Columns (Behaves like tags)?

My #koboshelves composite column template is

Quote:
{#fandom},{#characters},{#pairing}
It pulls in the #fandom and #pairing data, but the #characters data, which is in a column that's formatted as "Ampersand formatted text, show in tags browser" and as "Names," doesn't populate.

Right now I created a work around by using Action Chains to manually copy the info from the #characters column into a new plain "Comma separated text" column and pulling THAT into the #koboshelves column, but I'd like to remove that extra step if possible.

ETA: And another question! Is there an easy way (preferably using mass edit/search & replace) to take information from the #pairing column (formatted as Character A/Character B) and copy that into a #characters column as Character A & Character B?
