Already got it. I'm just helping out the poor deluded souls who haven't
seen the light yet. 8-)

Hey guys,
Get Copyists Helper, already! Seriously. These workarounds are
clever, I'll admit, but none of them approach the simplicity and
usefulness of Robert's plugin.

Yes, now we've come full circle. This is exactly what I suggested in
my first reply to the original poster. <g>
Jonathan Smith seemed to be suggesting that Finale could automate
the recurring page headers -- and it can, but only if you then do
the p.1 header by hand.
One thing that is rather easy to do:
In your score, instead of the word "Instrument" that you have to
change later, select the Text tool then from the Text menu> Insert >
Description.
Once the parts are extracted, in each individual file you go to the
File menu, where you select File Info and enter the instrument name
in the Description field. The insert will be changed automatically.
This still means that you have to change things manually at least
once. Where this really gets useful is if you have to edit an
instrument name more than once, like if you are using Special Part
Extraction, where the staff name header is not created automatically.
