Whenever I have batch processes in Finale that come to a halt, I expect some form of data inconsistency, and go to Data Check and run the CHECK FILE CONSISTENCY. Almost every time, some minor problem is found and corrected. It doesn't always eliminate the problem (for instance, the MusicXML plugin in Win2K3 can't convert a number of my files), but it's at least something to try. -- David W.
