Hi Kevin

I just tried your suggestion, and the track played as normal.  None of the 
beginning of the track had been removed.

Shame, as that suggestion sounded so easy.

  Alternatively, use shift + right arrow to move the start marker to the point 
where you want the file to start.  Select Save Selection from the file menu and 
you're done.  This assumes you're wanting to remove a portion from the start of 
the file.

  If you want to remove a portion from the end of the file it's a very similar 
approach but you use control + shift + left arrow to move the end marker 
inwards to the point at which you want your file to end before choosing Save 
Selection from the file menu.

  You could also move the end marker right to the point at which you want to 
remove the starting segment and press delete.  By doing this, you've selected a 
small portion between start and end markers.  Once deleted, you can choose save 
from the file menu.

  You can use spacebar repeatedly to listen back to what you currently have 
selected so you can be sure what you will be saving when you've set your start 
or end markers.  There's an undo option in the edit menu so you can back out 
any mistakes and try again without doing any harm to your file.

  As you can see, there's many ways to achieve a simple edit using Goldwave so 
it's just a case of having a play and seeing what works best for you.

  Regards.

    Terry - don't know if this was addressed to me, but will this help? Start 
the song playing, when you reach where you want to split the file, pause the 
track, and go in to the edit menu and under q points is the drop marker option, 
hit enter on this, and a marker will have been placed at the point where you 
paused the file. Now go back to the q points menu and hit enter on split file, 
then tab through to make your selection, and hit enter on the start button or 
split file button whatever it's called.

    HTH -

      Hi

      Andy, could I mail you off list about this, as its probably not strictly 
access related.

      I'm trying to figure out how to cut off part of a track at the beginning 
of a song.  I've done it before, but can't remember how.   Just wanted to cut 
off about ten seconds off the beginning of a song.

      Thanks

      Terry
