CD Music Collection Database: Windows Media Player to Access?

[Auntie Carrot]

Is there a way to export CD label data and information to an Access database?
Information such as artist, label, individual track listings. recording name
etc? WM player reads the cd info so it would seem there should be a way to
export that information as fields to Access. Anxious to hear...

This should do something like what you want.

Thank you for your timely response. Software code for Access is too
unfamiliar for me to manage. My computer skills are limited to simple DOS,
Windows and Office programs. I am familiar with only very simple strings and
macro-type code. Should I assume there is no way to accomplish the export
from Media Player to Access database built into either program? If there is
no way to do this, I will probably resort to entering the data manually
because I'm afraid it would take me much longer to learn how to use the code
from the links you recommended. Or, as I'm using Office v2002, is the option
available in a newer version of either program? I wish I were not so
intimidated by "code", but alas, without a Microsoft techie sitting at my
desk with me to "walk me through it", I'm forced to use familiar resources
that will get the job done. I do look forward to any help you can provide.
