All,
I can't attach the PDF file to this mail, but I have a copy of this Sibelius
5 Handbook that I downloaded some years ago from the Avid web site. I was
trying to find some "What's New" information for Thomas, and while I did not
find that, I did notice that this is a pretty handy getting started tutorial
for beginners to Sibelius 5.
It is not intended for the blind, but I think it's fundamental enough that
any new users should read through it to learn the basics of using Sibelius
5, while using Sib-Access as our tool.
So write me off-list to the address below, and I'll shoot off a reply with
the attachment. It's the original PDF file from Avid web site, so I'm not
violating any copyrights.

Are there actually any other major differences between sib 3 with
sibspeaking and sib 5 except for the file sharing option?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Thomas
