Title: Search function - HELP PLEASE
Post by: rumba101 on April 07, 2007, 04:40:20 pm
Hello everyone.

Perhaps I am a bit dense and don't know how to set this up so I am reaching out for some help

I have a batch of mp3 files that have been labeled in a strange fashion.  An example will probably illustrate best, In the artist field instead of, "Martina McBride" what is appear is "McBride, Martina"

Well, I am trying to figure out a simple way to isolate these files so I can rename them.  My "creative" way of isolating would be to somehow be able to search for commas in the Artist field.  Can anyone explain how to do that? When I attempt to set this up, it forces me to choose a specific artist but that's not what I want.  Can you help me do this type of search?  Or if you have another way to do this, I am up for suggestions.

Thanks!

Piero

Very nice.  No way I could have figured that on my own!
