I inadvertently created a tag named Catalogue# instead of Catalogue #  
I ripped 20 albums before I realized it.  
I have copied the catalogue numbers from Catalogue# column into the Catalogue # column and deleted the info in the Catalogue# column.  
How would I ( most safely ) remove the tag Catalogue# or should I just leave it?  
Thanks

There are no "empty" tag-fields. If the content is gone the tag-field is gone in the file.  
You can check this with a look at the extended tags (ALT-t).  
There you also can delete tagfields with the red cross.

Thankyou.  
Had a look with Alt T...the Catalogue# is not there after removing the data in the field.  
Thanks for responding.
