Read & Write Mp3 File Tag Properties

The problem with the Write macro was that, although it did work, it used SendKeys which has to be slowed down considerably.

Here is a new version of the Write macro that works as normal. I originally tried to use CDDBControl.dll version 1.2.0.51 which is widely available on the internet but found that I could only get it to change 1 file before crashing Excel.

I have put the READ macro in the next message.

Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim FromRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim FilesToChange As Integer ' number of files to change
Dim FilesChanged As Integer ' number of files changed
Dim MyFilePathName As String ' full path & file name
Dim MyFileType As String ' mp3 wma etc.
'-
Dim id3 As Object
Dim MyArtist As String
Dim MyAlbum As String
Dim MyGenre As String
Dim MyTrack As String
Dim MyTitle As String

Sub WRITE_TO_EXPLORER()
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Set id3 = CreateObject("CDDBControlRoxio.CddbID3Tag")
LastRow = ws.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row ' count worksheet rows
FilesToChange = ws.Range("A2:A" & LastRow).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Count
If FilesToChange = 0 Then MsgBox ("No files to change."): Exit Sub
FilesChanged = 0........................
