This question sure seems like _MP3Tag 101_, but I cannot find it in the forums or FAQ. I just want an action to remove the total number of songs in the Track # column.

i.e.  
1/5  
2/5  
3/5  
4/5  
5/5

to just:  
1  
2  
3  
4  
5

Thanks so much!

Create an action of the type "Format value" for TRACK  
Enter as format string:  
$num(%track%,1)  
if you want plain numbers or  
$num(%track%,2)  
if you want padded numbers with 2 digits.
