Sorry, I did forget to give this basic information. I am on a PC, all documents have .mus extension (like this: SashaWorks/BALL4A.MUS), and did open without any problem previously. I currently have Fin08 and Fin02 installed on my system. The files were originally created with - I assume - Fin94, but were reopened a few years back, edited a bit and saved with some later version(s).
Any help would be most appreciated, as I do not have the time and/or strength to input the whole score all ocer again. >I have attempted to open a folder of older files without any success.
