All I did was to do a search (with Artist turned on) for Dwight in the Edit Songs tool. Then highlight the first one and right click in the Artist block below the list. Wait a couple seconds (for the automatic fill list to complete) and type in the corrected name. For the rest I highlight the name again and Press Control C (for copy) then select the next song right click on the Artist again and press Control V to paste the new name in. Works like a charm.
By changing them in Access, the next time you have to Rebuild or Add Database all those changes will revert back to what is in the KMA header which doesn't get changed from Access.

Hi ddouglass

Yes you can edit and then write changes back to the header without loosing the changes you made in the database, But you gotta know what you do.
