Hi Folks - love the new update that allows each field to have its own custom list in tag panel - but is there a convenient way to add more than one entry at a time. I have a huge list of composers that I would like to add, but one at a time is a no go. I saw a post about editing the user ini file but got a bit lost with all the text encoding stuff.

Cheers

Maybe this topic can help you:

> So, I made a big list of user-defined genres and i want to write them using the dropdown menu. It's possible if the song has only one genre, but how I can add multiple genres without typing it manually? In the GENRE field genres are written with separator so the dropdown won't show since there's already text in the field. I can use alt+T to open All Tags and see genres separated, but I can't use the dropdown in All Tags. Is there any way to add multi-tags with the dropdown menu?

Thanks LyricLover but its not multiple tags in a field its the custom lists that you can add in the tag panel for the drop down menu.

incifinci - yes that's the post I found but I cant make sense of some of it, downloaded Editpad, but the first item it says to do is not there (the characters to u\ffff) let alone all the ^^^ stuff; do I have to add codes at the ^^^??? (my brain getting old!). Must be an easier way!!!

cheers for the help anway.

I expanded my comment. Read it now. The **ready, converted text file** is also there, you do not even need the EditPad.

Thanks incifinci - time for coffee and some pain killers to get my brain working!!  
I see from the picture you are using editpad pro, I could only see the top few setting in the covert tab as I was using the free version!!

Thanks for your help
