Thanks, Robert. I'll give it a try.

Hi, folks. Running Finale 2010 on Mac OSX 10.8.5.
Been working on my first full-length opera, and the Act IV Finale (no pun
intended) became, for want of a better word, corrupted.
When I try to play it, it takes several minutes to load. Since I'm one of
those, 'try this, play it, don't like it, try that, play it' type of
composers, that makes work on the file pretty odious.
I tried to export the file to .xml, and it keeps giving the message 'Error
while exporting MusicXML file [FILENAME] at part 22, measure 11."
Since that's somewhere in the string section (it doesn't seem to go by
staves), I tried deleting the entire string section, exported it, imported
it, and I get a file that loads and plays immediately.
Now I'm trying again with the original file, deleting strings section by
section / measure by measure to try to delete the measures with the error.
Is there any easier way to do this? Is there someone I could (gladly!) pay
to take my original corrupted file and send my back an uncorrupted file?
Any advice / suggestions deeply appreciated. Thanks and best,
Mike

The first thing to try is File Maintenance. That might fix the problem. At
the very least you'll get a report. On the report is something called
"Frames". Hopefully that number is nowhere near 32767, otherwise you will
be having continuing troubles.
FWIW: Garritan, at least, starts much faster in Fin25 than some older
versions. I don't know about Fin10, though.
