      • 2007-09-30 27309, 2007

      • brianfreud
        I tried to catch all those - it’s Guess Case in sentence mode. For some reason, any word preceeding a : it likes to capitalize in that mode

        ok, while this uploads... Fill in all the info in the various Excel AR sheets. Add any release/artist rowids to the “Tables” sheet as needed. Then go to the “HTML - ARs” sheet and copy the entire visible column (even if most of it is empty) and paste that into the html file, where indicated (down at the bottom of the file). Install the GM script, and load the HTML file in FF. Click start, and wait :)
