How to transfer MP3 Tags to Excel

[Guest]

Hello,
I'm wanting to transfer the details of MP3 files (eg. name, artist, album, year, etc) to an excel spreadsheet. At present I'm just copying the file names through Command Prompt but I thought there must be a way to capture the MP3 Tags to make a more detailed spreadsheet. Cheers. Jim

To add a "Print Directory" feature to Explorer, go to
this KB Article.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;q272623&

Or you can download Printfolder 1.2 from.....

http://no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/

I use PF 1.2 and find it to be more than adequate with custom features.

OR Go to DOS(Command) prompt and directory.
Type DIR >MYFILES.TXT

All the above create a *.TXT file which can be opened in Excel.

One more method if you want to by-pass the *.TXT file and pull directly to
Excel is to use Tushar Mehta's Excel Add-in. This allows filtering and
sorting once you have the data in Excel.

http://www.tushar-mehta.com/ scroll down to Add-ins>Directory Listing.

Download the ZIP file and un-zip to your Office\Library folder.
