And that indeed does the trick.

I still get the error, but the final result is perfectly OK.

Great, thanks. I'll work on putting in my own composition then.

I am glad to learn that you finally solved most (hopefully: all)
of your initial problems. Let me, nevertheless, add a few comments
after the fact (I am sorry I didn't pitch into this thread
earlier); they may be useful to other newbies:

     (1) part if not all of your installation problems seem to have
         their source in that you apparently did not follow Eva
         Jaksch's advice meticulously, in particular: DO NOT let
         MikTeX install your musixTeX-related software
         automatically! Cf.

         http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/musixwin.pdf

     (2) most (if not all) of the GUI interfaces that include
         TeX/LaTeX features (such as Winedt) do not work well with
         MusixTeX, in particular because of MusixTeX's 3-pass
         system (which Don Simons pointed out to you). In my
         experience, it is easier to write your own script/batch
         file for that. An example which includes the preprocessor
         PMX is
                             runpmx.bat
         which you will find in my PMX tutorial

            http://icking-music-archive.org/software/pmx/pmxccn.pdf

     (3) It's quite courageous of you to start learning musixTeX
         with coding in straight musixTeX. You should by all means
         get familiar with PMX: it simplifies the use of musixTeX
         enormously (and that's an understatement).

ccn.
