No, Finale doesn't handle accidentals correctly on parts using Chromatic 
Transposition, especially if you have flipped accidentals with the 9 key in 
Speedy or run the Cautionary Accidentals plugin or try to Respell notes on a 
chromatically-transposed part. For those three I can give you chapter and verse 
on how to make those bugs show their ugly faces. Darcy probably knows more, 
which is why I asked him.
