>From memory the layout is determined by commas, as in comma separated values, and hard returns to indicate records. . Personally I would experiment with a global find and replace in TextEdit or Beam to replace spaces with commas to see if that helps matters. If you can get the records layout correct you can simply delete the columns you do not need.

I want title, artist and that's it. No path. If the artist is blank then I would hope it would make the column blank as well. I really hope I don't have to do this by hand.
