disappearing measures,

I've never seen that. What is that? I have occasionally seen measures APPEAR to vanish, but that is usually because I had a multi-measure rest where I later entered notes, and forgot to turn off the rest.

 
That was a typo (although I have seen the measures with music "hidden" inside a multiple rest before) � I should have said disappearing systems. A while back I was doing a string quartet score, for example, with two systems per page. After completing all the horizontal layout and editing, I set the top and bottom margins for all pages in an appropriate spot and the did Page Layout/Space Systems Evenly..., whereby Finale pushes the top system to the top of the page and the bottom system to the bottom of the page. What I discovered was that occasionally the bottom system would simply go missing, so page x would e.g. be system 10 and 11, page y would be system 12 with no bottom system, and page z would be sytem 14 and 15. So system 13 simply disappeared. If I looked in scroll view the music was still all there, just not in page view. Once I saw this I realized it was happening very frequently.
 
Again, this was Finale 2002.
