can I have the album name automatically generated by

[theloniouscoltrane]

I have all these Grateful Dead shows where they are in a folder that properly names the album, for instance "Grateful Dead Live at Barton Hall, Cornell University on 1977-05-08" but the album name in MM is blank, or worse, is listed as "Added 2008-12-21 17-26"

Is there any way for that set of files, to have the album automatically grab its name from its file folder? I.e. where I could perhaps highlight all of the GD live shows that are missing album titles and hit alt F6 (I'm making this up, of course) and it would magically solve my problem?

Thanks in advance. Our MM geniuses, who I vote should have the same designation that some other companies bestow, have always been so helpful. You are the reason I stick with MM in lieu of any others.

I knew how to use the auto tag from file name, but, just in case I'm not the only dummy out there, I never knew you could specify the entire line. That's where I got tripped up. I thought you could only specify back to the first "\"

Don't ask me where I dredged that incorrect fact. Anyway, as usual, thank you again. The help was spot on, fast and no one made me feel foolish except myself.
