Spiders,

Before I forget, which I practically already have, I would like to thank everyone for the suggestions on how to get the cat's piddling safely out of an antique raw wool lined quilt. Because fresh air seems to play an important role in the cleaning, I'm forcing myself to wait until Spring gets here and actually *stays* here to I can clean the quilt and put it carefully on the line outside for airing.

Now then, my music software question. I'm looking for a music-writing program that doesn't cost an arm and two dozen legs that can do what I want. I've tried a couple of downloaded free trial programs, but none of them seem to do what I want them to (simple things like tie or slur notes together in different voices within the same measure).

Over the years I've written quite a number of hymn-tunes, and one Missa Brevis, and I would like very much to get a music program that will allow me to write four-part hymns and put the verses within the staves and lined up with the correct notes. Surely this is an inexpensive program that will do this easily? I don't need anything that will allow me to write a symphony or anything terribly fancy, and I don't need lots of "bells and whistles" so long as there is a means to transpose the MS if I wish.

People in my church choir seem to get panicky and nervous when presented with music manuscript, so I need music writing software that will accommodate simple hymn writing. Help!
