Default From a media playlist can you link to word

Graham's answer was correct in that if you are talking about a simple
playlist like an m3u-file, it is just a text file. So all you would have to
do is open Word, then using the "Open" menu select the m3u file and all your
songs would be listed by filename.

However your question is extremely vague formulated and you could mean
something totally different.

For starters, what do you mean by "typing media tracks info"? MP3 ID3v2
tags? Ogg XIPH comments? MPC APE tags? AAC tags? ... Or are you simply
talking about creating a playlist? The latter is what was assumed so far.

Also, what do you expect from the linking? A list of file names in Word? A
list of songs by artist? All details of all songs listed in a table?

You still not helping me, so what programs that will link, excel, access
or
what!? Don't see what your site will help, if you are not with Microsoft.
Can anyone give me a point blank answer, please. Don't have time to read
a
book of weird answers. To the point, please.

Media playlists are normally plain text files, which don't support
