Hi Jim:
Tried the export options - you still get multiple lines for each track in an album. The output is too long (100pgs) to use as a reference list to determine what CD's from my collection need to be loaded into MJ. The output is long due to the fact that there is a line for every track in the library. SO what you end up with is ARTIST X ALBUM A listed as many times as there are tracks on the album. Even if I use EXPORT SELECTED FIELDS ONLY (that is "artist" & "album title"), What I was looking for was a rather simple report that lists each artist, then underneath a list of album titles for that artist. This produces a short and sweet listing of my MJ library. If it is of use to the majority of MJ users, a report designer might be in order - but to keep down the size of MJ itself, it could be a standalone app. Just my .02.
In my case, I take my laptop (wireless connection) into the room where I store my CD's, and use media server to look at my main MJ library stored on my server. But for those not so equiped, a reporting module might be usefull.
