Entering list of musicians from AMG
« on: February 25, 2003, 08:19:17 am »

Hi. Until recently I used MusicMatch as my main tool for most things regarding mp3s. Now that I'm (probably) switching to MJ, there are a few things I need to find out. In MMJB I used to copy the list of musicians to the 'Bios' tag, and these would automatically appear in the 'Comment' column in MJ. So far all is well. But when I try to copy/paste directly into the 'Comment' box in MJ, most of the text disappears. Is there a way to work around this?

that is because you have line feeds in the text your pasting.

Comment Box will take the first line.

I don't remember if MJ8 had a "Notes" field but i think it did that is a multi line box, so Bios would be better put there.

Yeah, I've also by now found out that the 'notes' field is a better place for pasting musicians' list. also, it is editable.
so here's another prob: is there a way to move the info previously put under the 'comment' tag, to the 'notes' tag, working with more than one album at the time?

Hi okvaal,

With MJ8 moving data from one property field to the other is a bit cumbersome.
But with MC9 (now in beta) there's a new tool to do exactly what you want (moving/copying data fields from one to another).
All'n all properties management is much better with MC.

Thanks a lot. Since I started this thread, I have in fact been upgrading to MC9, and you're right: there it is. And yes, I agree, MC is a better tool. My best investment for a long time ;D
