sweet, yup works like a charm.
after seeing all my tracks on the palm, i noticed that i have alot of artist tags that vary a bit from one another. Instead of planatir thinking its 2 completely different groups, can't you read the file structure we have setup on the empeg, and display that on the palm? this would solve the problem with various artists cd where the artist tag is different for each track. Can't you figure out the directory structure by the values in the FID? I remember reading somewhere on this bss how the FID numbers are generated with the file structure embedded into them? something similar to this
