Hi David, Have you any idea what would cause this. All going well, effectively chopped off front end of file saved as new name then imported new file using open command to chop end off it. However, I have tried this on a number of occasions and the converted MP3 file to audacity format only seems to load about 60% of the file in other words the remaining 40% approx does not convert hence is not there to remove the end of it. The total file length is around 50 mins Thanks for any ideas Colin

So shift+home and shift+end work in a similar way that they work when editing a line of text. David. orginal message: Hi David, I'm getting there, if I want to chop the front end of a file off is it the same my question comes from The below points which I read to mean find where you are going to start to chop it then take off that to the end of the file but I may be mis understanding If I want to find the place around 5 mins into the file and remove the file up to this point what do I do 2. move cursor to the start of the section which you want to chop off. This is described in detail below. 3. press shift + end to select a time range from the cursor to the end of the file, Many thanks Colin To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the Symantec Email Security.cloud service.
