Thanks, that's a point in the direction. But I can only fit 200 tracks
on a CD and I have 700 odd tracks. So I'm into 4 CDs. I've randomised
the 700 and made 4 playlists (in winamp) and I want to create a file
each of each of these lists. Which I can then pick up in Nero and burn.

It's turning a 'playlist' in Winamp into a file that can be read by Nero
that is the problem.
