Well, it seems to me that John's confusion here is natural. Now, granted, I don't have Finale 2006 in front of me to work with, but to me, GPO *ought* to be one of the MIDI output options, because it's, well A MIDI OUTPUT OPTION. I don't care what the underlying technologies are, but from a user point of view, it's an output device and oughtn't be treated in a special way, in completely different dialogs that are located somewhere else. This is one of the big problems with adapting any program to the specifics of another program. It seems to me that this kind of thing can only exacerbate Finale's already myriad UI problems. -- David W.
