Printing
« on: August 01, 2005, 07:43:58 pm »

I would like to print what I have in my Media Center Database.  I only want to print the Artist Name and Album.  What it prints is the artists names and albums but next to every song in the database (8,000).  So I just want a summary.

Does anyone know how to do that?  I have tried numerous things but I get the same result.

Help....

Thank you in advance.

There isn't any way to do this that I know of, so I'll suggest a work around.

You need to have access to Excel, or else Open Office (openoffice.org).  Select your entire database, and then right-click "copy", and then paste it into your spreadsheet program.  A big database will take a while to load.

Once it's in excel, it's easy to trim off the fields you don't want.  You can organize and format it for printing also.
