I'm just getting started with sabelious myself. You said something here 
about the breakpoint being c4 do you set that up in sonar or in sabelious?

Hi Dave,
I have been trying to do the think just as you set for days but I could not
get any success
with it. For example I have a piece for piano and cello saved as a single
midi file in Sonar. When I try to open the file in Sibelius doing all the
things you told me that I have to do, it still gives me a single stave
instead of giving me 1 stave for the cello and 2 staves for the piano right
and the left hands.
I have no idea what I will do for my orchestral work which has 25 different
instruments when I try to open it in Sibelius.
If you may help me with this it is going to be a grate help for my school
work.

Thanks allot
Regards
Caglar
