Hi Neal, Unfortunately, this is a well-documented bug dating from the FIRST linked parts version, and never corrected or even addressed. It occurs when you have linked, voiced parts (not all linked parts, just those where you split into different parts from the same staff) that use grace notes. Grace notes are okay on linked parts that have only one part per staff.
The way around it is to extract the part(s). This is not as big a pain as it sounds, as you can do all your formatting as a linked part, then once everything is done, extract the part and ALL the formatting is preserved (unlike the pre-2007 part extraction.) Please open a tech support case outlining this problem and your complaint. This will force them to make note of the complaint, and move it up the to-do list. This bug makes linked parts useless if you ever use grace notes, and they really should address it.
