A simple test: In WinFin 2004 I entered a few measures of verse one as "one one one one" and verse two as "two two two two." I then click assigned them. I then went into "Edit Lyrics" and cut (Ctrl-x) and pasted (Ctrl-c) verse one lyrics into verse two and verse two lyrics into verse one. The changes took effect when I exited the "Edit Lyrics" dialog box.
When I finished, verse one had the "two two two two" and verse two had the "one one one one." Based on this simple three measure test, I believe that you can change yours also. However, I would make a backup copy of the file before trying it.

What you might consider is entering text in the verse 4 box which says "lyrics for verse 4 were inadvertently entered as verse 5", to serve as a reminder when you revisit the file years from now. mdl _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
