Thanks Christopher. You guessed correctly at my meaning although all
my question's words didn't come out in the e-mail. Thanks for your
solutions.
All the best,

I don't think that's what he means. He wants two different PARTS to
have different measure number settings.
I think the easiest way to achieve this is to extract the one part
with different number settings (the vocal part) and change them once
extracted. You won't have the part linked any more, but that isn't
as much of a pain in the neck as I expected it to be on the
occasions I've done it.
An alternative is to set up two different regions, then number one
of them to start at measure 999 while you print the other parts,
then switch it to start at measure 1 and the OTHER region at measure
999 while you print the vocal part. You will have to remember to
make that change every time you print parts, though. That's why I
think the extracted part is a better solution.
I think I remember jef chippewa coming up with this scheme before we
had separate layout for score and parts.
Kim, I think another solution to your problem (which is probably
that measure numbers collide with the lyrics, right?) is just to
have the normal linked part, then in page view in the vocal part,
select the measure tool, hit command-A to select all (which will
select the measure numbers) then drag them to above the staff all at
once. You might have to do this once for each page, but it is very
easy to do and prevents measure number collisions. Just make sure
they are close enough to the staff that the singer associates them
with the proper measure, NOT the measure above!

I think that works through the measure number dialogue box: one set
of numbers and positions for the score and another for the linked
parts.
There are several different settings for each in the lower two
thirds of the dialogue box that should accomplish that.
Is that what you need?

Question:
In MacFin2011 can we have = the bar numbers formatted
differently in
different parts?
&= nbsp; For instance, in the vocal part I want the bar number
to appear only at the beginning of each system on top of the
staff. In the instrumen tal parts I want the bars numbers to
appear in each bar below the staff.
All the best,
KIM R
