> Thanks for the suggestion. This does give me a list of Artist/Album/Year that I was looking for. However, my original problem remains, which is if I have an Artist who has a song in a compilation album (these songs are tagged with the Artist under %Artist% and 'Various Artists' under %albumartist%) it shows up in this list for every song by a different artist and I'd like to exclude them from this list ...

Maybe you want a script something like this ...

**01: $filename($getEnv('USERPROFILE')'\Desktop\AlbumList.csv.txt',UTF-8)** 

**02: $loop($if2(%ALBUMARTIST%,%ARTIST%),1)$loop(%ALBUM%,1)'"'$if2(%ALBUMARTIST%,%ARTIST%)'","'%ALBUM%'","'%YEAR%'"'  
03: $loopend()$loopend()**
