Think this program is great and am still learning how to use it 😃 So here is my question how do you block change the track names in the file column for example i have 11 tracks that i want to change from 01 - Abba - Waterloo.mp3 to 01 - Waterloo.mp3 02 - Abba - Sitting in the Palmtree.mp3, to 02 - Sitting in the Palmtree.mp3 and so on Also if the track name is somthink like :- 02 - Abba \_ Sitting _in_ the\_ Palmtree.mp3 How do you change it to :- 02 - Abba - Sitting in the Palmtree.mp3 Thanks for a great program 😃 ---

Please try to experiment with the actions. ---
