Quote:Background: I've LOTS of tagged classical music for which no conductor, orchestra and soloists tags are used, but ARTIST is composed of [CONDUCTOR] ", " [ORCHESTRA] "(" [SOLOISTS] ")". A rewriting rule such as

Quote:@ARTIST=#1, #2 ( #3 )
=ARTIST=#2
+CONDUCTOR=#1
+SOLOISTS=#3

would be very handy

You can use tag formattting to do this.

Sorry, I didn't get this; I want to decompose a given string (consisting of conductor, Orchestra and soloists (in brackets)) into pieces and assign them to CONDUCTOR, ORCHESTRA and SOLOISTS. From the user guide I can't find a clue how to do that with tagFormat. Any hints?
