That will work sometimes, but not always, since my songs are sometimes
named differently when I get them. :(

But thanks for the suggestion.

Cool. Thanks for thinking about this.

I apologize for being dim, but I can't get Profiles to work, & I can't
find any documentation online. I create a new profile, make the
settings I want in the Find & Replace dialog, run Krename, & then when
I go to another batch of songs, none of the F&R changes I made load.
If I go back to Profiles & try to load the one I created, none of the
F&R changes still load. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Scott
