Author Topic: Change a tag label while retaining the information for that label?  (Read 43 times)

Almost everything I have in MC is classical music. In the tags section I have thousands of of items classified as "Albums" that are in fact individual "Works". For example, Beethoven's 5th Symphony is a "work", and currently I have it tagged as an "Album", which it is not. Can I eliminate the "Album" tag label and replace it with with "Work" while retaining the corresponding information?

Thanks very much for taking time to reply to my post.  I have read both of the recommended discussions, and neither address my question, which is:  I have over ten thousand music files in MC that are currently tagged as "Album" that I want to be tagged as "Work".  How can I change these thousands of "Album" tag entries to "Work" tag entries?  Ideally, I would like eventually to be able to use the "Album" tag in order to indicate what "Works" are on a particular CD or LP.  But when I search for something to listen to I look for specific "Works" (by composer) and not for "Albums".
