A dream came TRUE and I missed it... I was so hasty when I installed PMX200 that I didn't stop and read the Manual... Here is a brief on the changes I missed by not reading the manual... Pmx 1.34 and before (?) PMX 2.0 7 Voices (Staves) 12 Voices (Staves) 7 lines of music 12 lines of music 14 key changes 18 key changes In my question I was laboring under the idea that I was limited to 6 (yes, 6) voices in all! Time for me to catch up again :-)) THANKS DON!! This really opens up to a realization that I can use M-Tex (with good PMX background in there), for a variety of Choral Scores (SATB + Piano, Plus accompanying instruments. Let's see, 4 voices for the Piano, 4 for the SATB, and 4 left over for the Brass Quartet (or whatever else?) > ....all PMX commands were accessible somehow from >within M-Tx, similar to the way PMX makes TeX commands available.

(It ought to be, after all the time and effort I put >in this area.) > Similarly, I recognize that successfully using M-Tex requires a thorough working knowledge of PMX, and a bit more MusixTex thrown in for "good measures" :-)) Anyway, this posting is really a reminder for the Newbies: Read the Manuals every time there is an update, and then read them again... I seem to be always a newbie and never able to come to a knowledge of the "Knuth" - (from the Gospel according to Tex). I have forgotten more than I ever knew :-)) Joel Hunsberger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
