Hello everyone.  
I looked for an answer here, but I don't think I found it.

I would like to export all the TAGs (no one excluded) of the songs opened in Mp3Tag to an XLS (XLSX) file.

Could you help me?  
Tnks!

The standard installation comes with a CSV export script.  
Have a look at it and edit according to your needs e.g. to include further fields.

Yes, true, I have seen.  
It's a long job but it's not difficult: just understand how to set the syntax of the file.

In my Mp3Tag I configured the COMPILATION field but I didn't find the relative placeholder for the export.  
Can you give me a suggestion?  
Many tnks.

You find a comprehensive list of supported tag fields in the help:

> **[Tag Field Mappings – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping/)**
>
> Overview of all available tag fields, their names in Mp3tag, and how they are mapped to the internal structures of the different tag formats. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

... and for compilation here: [https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping/#compilation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping/#compilation)

Further fields that might be of interest you find also in the help in the export topic:  
[https://docs.mp3tag.de/export](https://docs.mp3tag.de/export)

The variable for COMPILATION is %compilation%

Ohrenkino,  
thanks for the reply.

I knew those pages you linked: I learned from there how to configure the export function, but I did not find the placeholder for COMPILATION.  
Thanks again.
