I have a lot of existing tags that contain secodaryartist tag, is there a way
for MP3TAG to edit/read these?

Thanks I see the tag now.
I have a tag under extended, it was created with Helium called #HELIUM FEATURED ARTIST
is there a generic tag I should use for a second artist?
I have created a field called SECONDARYARTIST is this acceptable as proper tagging?

I don't know it exactly but I think the BAND-tag is a field where you can put in such data. But creating own fields isn't forbidden.
But be aware that those fields are not always supported by other progs.

I've created a tag and called it SECONDARYARTIST, I had the data in before and I need it for
file naming purposes. The program works great.
Thanks
