What is the procedure to Import a CSV formatted Export created with mp3tag?

In other words, I have used the mp3tag export dialog to export the tags from all .mp3 files in a singe folder, using the mp3tag CSV export option.

Now I'd like to re-import the tags to the same .mp3 files in the same folder. Does an import function exist and if so, what is the process?

Please advise and thanks!

Use the function Convert\>textfile - tag.  
Enter the field descriptors in the sequence they occur in the text file.  
Insert blanks only where they really are, enter the field separators as you find them in the source file, e.g.  
%artist%;%title%;%album%
