Correct: "D" in the subject line was a typo. I did get the markup to work, as suggested, and got it to play back correctly. It ain't pretty, but it works.
Thanks all, Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of dhbailey Sent: Saturday, April 09, 2005 12:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Finale] Repeats: A-B-C-B-C-D The "D.S. al Fine" would go at the end of the C section. The segno goes at the start of the B section with the Fine at the end of the B section. In order for the jumps to work properly you would have to either set the D.S. marking to jump after 2 repetitions or use a 1st/2nd ending setup and place the D.S. marking under the 2nd ending. But I notice a discrepancy between your subject line, which indicates a form of A-B-C-B-C-D and your message which says A-B-C-B-C-B. I think you mean the form in your message, not your subject.
