Hi 🙂  
Example:  
$loop("%\_filename\_ext%")  
or  
$loop("%artist%")  
But ever order is in one item...  
I need sorting in MORE de one item, need multiples items  
in the "Old System" my sort is:  
[EXPORTSORT]  
SORT=2 5 9  
In the "New System" I don't know ☹  
Very Thanks.

I don't have much experience with the export, but according to the help:

> $loopend() ends a loop.  
> If you want to limit the loop to a certain number of entries per loop partition, simply use $loop("%fieldname%",num). This is useful to eliminate duplicate records (num=1).

I assume that nested loops would do what you want.

Anyways, I am sure dano or Florian can help you more. 🙂

Edit: Notice that new MP3Tag versions do not need the quotation marks around the field name. You will have to write:

```
$loop(%fieldname%)

```

Hi

I think this

```
$loop(%album%)$loop(%track%)$loop(%_filename_ext%)
---> export what you want here
$loopend()$loopend()$loopend()

```

would be the solution for you.
