Reorganizing Tagging
« on: September 06, 2005, 02:38:51 pm »

I am currentyl reorganizing my tagging slightly and in relation to this have the following question:

* How do I fill the content of one field with the content that is currentyl contained in another field?

* Is it possible to fill a new field with the content of variosu fields?
   Example: I have field for compser last name, first name and date he lived. Can I get that all combined into one field (ie really combined not just as an expression field.

Many thanks

MC has a tool named "Move/Copy Fields" for directly copying, moving and exchanging field contents.

You cannot combine library fields in MC directly, but you can use the filenames as a middleman.
I have explained the principle here:
