looked a lot in the forum & in your help section, but couldn't find a solution for my problem (maybe it's a bug?)

i would love to tag my mp3's automatically with your great list-import option, but:

to test it's function & to check, how my textfile should look like, i first exported a list within your program with the following syntax:
<Filepath absolute> ; <Artist> ; <TrackNr> ; <Title> ; <Album> ; <Year>

then i tried to write/preview tag's to be written, using the import from file option,
syntax:
<Target file> ; <Artist> ; <TrackNr> ; <Title> ; <Album> ; <Year>

but the programm only tells me for all files:
file to be tagged did not exist

any comments ?

You must use the <Target file AP> field (AP = absolute path) in the tag from list tool, since you have used the absolute path field to create the list.

thx for the quick response, but it still, doesn't work:

tried:
Code Sample
<Target file AP>; <Artist>; <TrackNr>; <Title>; <Album>; <Year>


first row in textfile:
Code Sample
D:\MUSIC\ALBUMS\KRUDER DORFMEISTER\DJ-KICKS [1996]\KRUDER DORFMEISTER - A Mother [1996#01].MP3;HERBALIZER;1;A Mother;DJ-KICKS;1996


also tried:
Code Sample
"D:\MUSIC\ALBUMS\KRUDER DORFMEISTER\DJ-KICKS [1996]\KRUDER DORFMEISTER - A Mother [1996#01].MP3";"HERBALIZER";1;"A Mother";"DJ-KICKS";1996


hm...??
(of course the file exists)
working with: version 3.5 beta 8

I see you have spaces adjacent to the semicolons in your template, but not in the list output. This could cause this problem, since the separator after the filename won't be found in the input file.
