This is why I still use Finale 2001 for tablature, for the most part.

Consider a simple 3-note G chord, G/B/G should be 3/0/0 on the first three
strings. Finale wants to render it as 3/x/4/5. OK, I can edit that to 3/0/0.
When I drag copy/paste the edit is untouched, but when I command-C/command-V
copy and paste (on Mac), it reverts to its default. And of course, to paste
or insert into a new file, that's the only way to go. It was this way in
2003, and it's _still_ this way in 2005. Unbelievable!
