You can do this in a number of ways, but the most convenient is to use TG tools "smart distribution of grouped parts." It's worth the money, and the few minutes it takes to figure out how it works. It does just what you need.

<x-tad-bigger> I have composed my score in pencil on paper, as is my custom, and am ready now to start entering the score, on my 2002b software. I want to do the score "in C", and then extract the parts in their appropriate transpositions. That (I think) I can handle!</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger> Here's where I need help! In the score I would like to be able to pair certain instruments on a single staff, like, Flutes 1&2, Oboes 1&2, etc. If I entered a pair of instruments in the score in a single staff, is it possible then to extract the parts for Flute 1 and for Flute 2 separately?! (And, of course, also for Oboes, Bassoons, Alto Saxophones, Horns, Trombones...)</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger> If there is no way to do this, does it mean that one needs to enter each instrument on a separate staff in order to be able to extract each part separately. Right, or not?! The down-side to that is that it makes for a very long (vertical) score when you have a large instrumentation.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger> Well, there is my question. I will be most grateful for your expert commentz.</x-tad-bigger>
