See the banjo music on my site. It's not worth the trouble of fine tuning this. Make notes blocks by copying if possible and then fill in fingering in the notes part(s) and remove many engravers from the tab staff. That's the only way to get it entirely the way you want it. Wnenever there are both a tab and a music staff it is best IMO if the tab staff contains nothing but the string lines and fret numbers. Without ties or rests there must be differences of opinion in exactly how the tab should be rendered. I don't see any generally acceptable solution. It is also a problem that the music might be in two parts but the tab should always be in one. daveA -- Free download of technical exercises worth a lifetime of practice: http://www.openguitar.com/dynamic.html :::: You can play the cards you're dealt, or improve your hand with DGT.
