But in older versions, dragging the endpoint back did the trick. In WinFin2003, it does not, at least, it doesn't for me. And that's why I posted the question -- is this something new in WinFin2003 (or some version of Finale after WinFin97) that makes it much, much harder to fix this, when you make the mistake of *not* stopping short of the barline, as you suggest. -- David W.
