[Re-sent to list. Grrr. Henry, where are you? Please fix this.]
I would very strongly recommend not dividing the score into several
files. Even for very large pieces, you are generally much better off
with a single score file for the entire work. It will save you a ton
of work and frustration in the long run.
At the very least, you should start out with a single score file --
if it becomes so big you find it's absolutely unworkable, you can
always split the file later. (Splitting is much, much easier than
joining.)
That said, if you want to paste together the extracted parts from
multiple files, Robert Patterson's Mass Copy plugin is pretty much
obligatory.

what the current situation (as of FinMac 2K4) is as regards pasting
together the extracted parts.
If I extract from only the first orchl. file, then paste the rest
of each part staff by staff from the other orchl. files onto the
individual parts files, what information if any will be lost?
