Hi,

Using the 3.21 version, I could not write the tag %Comment% with the %Year% one.  
As I try to copy a Tag to another the progress bar work but nothing append.  
How ever the preview show the right action...  
A bug or a mistake ? I put %Comment% in the field and %Year% in the Format String.  
I use this convert in a previous version and i remanber that was working well  
Thank for help.

A field reference is without the % - so it should be a plain COMMENT instead of %COMMENT%.  
A contents reference (in this case: you refer to the contents of the field YEAR) needs %year%.
