Hi,
How can I cut information from one field and paste it into another in batch mode. More specifically, how do I cut the info from he COMPOSER field and move it to the LYRICIST field in batch mode when the info stored in the field is not the same for every track?

Try this to copy the tag:
[/t/967/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/967/1)
Also set up an action that removes the original field if you want.
