Re: [Finale] De-assigning lyrics
Christopher, If Clone Lyrics was used originally, select Lyrics/Adjust Syllables, click the note, click the lower handle, click Delete, and type in the change. Hal Sorry I forgot. FinMac 2005.

Re: [Finale] De-assigning lyrics
Hal Thanks, that was it, as Thomas told me too. It wasn't working for me at first because Finale was in a delicate condition, and crashed soon after I wrote the inquiry. A reboot solved everything, and all is well with the world.
