Note also that my comment said "tutorials" not "manual." And I distinctly recall Will refusing to do the tutorials when advised to back in December. All of this is almost of a malignant unfairness. First, in December - if you might recall David Fenton, everyone knows because I told everyone - I was nearly BLIND. Thanks for forgetting this out of convenience just to bash a bit and shame on you! This shows to me what a little man you actually are, sorry for telling you. Second, my Adobe Reader did not work and downloading another one did not help. These are, I would think, two valuable reason which sufficiently explain why I needed some help beyond the level of help that should normally be given. Second, I would like to see Fenton come down his high horse and to answer the question, or rather, do not answer it. Just give me the page of the manual were I can find the answer. Just cite the page of a tutorial which deals with this question, but be sure that it really *answers* it. I have been looking for it everywhere; I cannot find it and I find it stupid that Finale works like that. If you can't find it, I think you owe my two apologies. Third, what Christopher says is patently untrue. No one ever named any page for me and I never demanded anything. It's simply not true; the interesting question is only why you lie about it. Fenton, I am not missing the boat. You are. You have to live with Finale and all its shortcomings because you the lack to time to learn something else. I can. And I will. You just work around bugs and all the other misery and be an expert in it. You know that well enough. But I'll do something else in the meantime. And if your favourite program keeps getting worse, as it seems to be doing, at some point you will have no choice left.
