Ok, sorry, I misunderstood your problem. The thing here is that you split your parts and in the score block you create two piano staves whereas one is completely sufficient. the time signature appears because the staff with the melody line begins after the line break. you have to add rests like R1*4 to your melody line and let it begin at the same time the piano intro does and reduce your score block to one PianoStaff. And then add the command I suggested earlier and first system will only show the piano intro.
I hope that helps. regards, Tao -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Fri, 27 Jul 2007 02:38:01 -0400 Von: Ed Ravin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An: "Paul A.
