I'm having real trouble tagging all tracks belonging to a compilation I
have several releases of: Now That's What I Call Music!. I have about
30 of the 70 releases in this series and tagging it is proving a
nightmare.

By using actions to prep the files, I've been able to at least download
tag info for several of these albums, but the problem is the results
(from Amazon.co.uk) are coming back in the format where Title = 'title
- artist', for example Title= Say What You Want - Texas.

It's a pity these are being returned to separate Title and Artist tags,
so I'm wondering if it's possible to do this via Actions. I think I need
something to find the first instance of '-' and then set Artist to be
all characters one to the right of this. And then it needs to remove
the last 2 characters from the Title tag. I've had a go at doing this
but can't figure it out. I'd be able to program this in VB/Java but
don't know enough about the syntax or functions in MP3Tag to figure it
out so any help would be sweet - these are the last albums from my
massive collection to sort out!
