Jamin, use the Measure tool, set the measure number region so that the numbers will automatically show every 600 measures or so (anything higher than the actual length of the score). Then while the measure tool is active, simply ctrl-click above whichever measure you want the number to appear and it will stay there, and change to reflect any changes in the music you make by deleting or adding measures.
If you want them to appear more as rehearsal marks usually appear (e.g. bold, larger font size, enclosed in a rectangle or circle) set those up when you define that measure number region.
You can use this one as a secondary region in addition to a region where the measure number is printed above the first measure of each system.
BUT, just as with all measure number regions, if you have 1st/2nd endings which you don't want counted separately, or have monkeyed around with measures so you end up with what appear to be mid-measure repeats or double bars, you may need to define several such measure regions for rehearsal marks depending on how accurate you want them to appear.
I am quickly becoming of the opinion that it really doesn't matter whether we count them accurately, only taking into account full measures and not counting 1st/2nd endings as separate measure numbers, or if we simply let Finale count straight through from beginning to end, as long as the score and all the parts match exactly.

Some years ago, I remember someone on this list telling us how to create move-able rehearsal marks - i.e., rehearsal marks that would reflect the measure number of whatever measure they were attached to - useful when adding or subtracting measures in the middle of a piece.
I would like to do this - can whoever said how to do it last time (or someone else who knows now) outline how to do it (again)?
