I hesitate to say this, but that seems to have done the trick! Thank you so much!
It's been running for nearly an hour now. I've tried everything I can to make it crash with no success even using files that were created during the "troubles". I've closed and opened Finale several times and rebooted the computer a couple of times and everything would still seem to be working well. (I haven't got a midi keyboard so that bit didn't apply) Thank you again, and thank you to all those who have led me step by step to the eventual solution.
