Although I am still running OS 9.2 on my Mac with Fin 2K3, I have been interested in what I am hearing about the latest version of Finale. For a notation program to inadvertently delete your work is cruel and unusual.

This is one of the many issues that drove me screaming from Nightengale to Finale. Items that I had carefully entered into the score did not extract with the parts. My Finale teacher who arranged for the Air Force Band said that the arrangers that he worked with would have thrown Nightengale directly into the trash and gone to an alternative program. Although this sounded a little drastic at the time, I find myself wondering why those of you who have been bitten by some pretty scary bugs have not simply disposed of this version of Finale and gone elsewhere. MM must be taken to task for selling an unstable program.

The more I read of your problems and frustrations with Finale's latest, the better 2K3 looks to me. I have no problems to report. 2K3 has been and will continue to be my faithful servant.
