First of all, let me say thank you Magnus!!!!!!!!!!  I would probably be dead right now if it wasn't for MP3 Tag Studio(no hyperbole!;)

What I'd like to know is whether there's any way to use the listmaker to make lists without duplicate entries?  I'd love to be able to make a list of artist names without having 600 "Who, The"s in a row.  I'm sure there's a way to do it but I'm at bit slow(I've been working nights).
Cheers!
and again thank you

What do you mean by duplicate entries? What if you have several songs with a certain artist (like "The Who" in your example), what do you want to happen then? I assume you don't have 600 copies of the [B]same song[B] by The Who in your collection?

I'd like to make a list of every artist in my collection. By "duplicate" I mean that I get an entry for every song by the same artist so if I have 60 songs by "Artist A" and 40 songs by "Artist B" I end up with a list that has "Artist A" 60 times in a row, "Artist B" 40 times etc etc.  I'd like to get just one entry for every artist.  It's not really that big a deal; I can always edit the list later; I'm just curious if there's a way to do it.
Thanks!

There is currently no direct feature for such a "summary" functionality, so the best would be to do this on the resulting list in something like Excel afterwards etc, as you mention.
