Friends:
I submitted to the MakeMusic! technical support the suggestion:
It has occurred to me that it would be a reasonable and proper
enhancement to the composer's forum to make it possible for users to use
this forum to trade library files and templates for use with Finale.

REally? This is the first time I hear of anyone using this. Do you really
input your music with MicNotator successfully?

I use them all the time. The prime use at least for me is for
doubling parts, which do occur often in the kind of music I edit.
Eventually the mirrors will have to be converted (part extraction
requires this) but they can save a lot of time.

Actually, if you really want to save keystrokes while conserving layout
tweaks -- without going through that tedious Express Music process -- you
can do what I and a number of other professional LA copyists do and use the
"Special Part Extraction" feature.
Basically, you make a copy of your score

Well, then, I take back what I just said in my previous message about
