I'm afraid the URL I gave wrapped, so make sure it ends in
dot aspx

However, I have now downloaded the demo of Finale 2008, and
in the File menu, there is a "MusicXML item".  If you select
that, you then have two choices, Import and Export. (Export
will be greyed out unless you have a file open)

Unfortunately I can't go further as the demo won't allow
saving.

I'm downloading a demo to see if I can locate exactly where
the feature reside, but meantime...

According to the following Finale web page, Finale 2003
upwards includes XML Import/Export.  With Finale 2000 -
2002, it was a separate module.

http://www.finalemusic.com/finale/features/shareandconnect/b
ackwards.aspx

The page begins:
"Import and Export MusicXML Files 
Finale can import and export MusicXML files—right from the
File menu and the launch window. Unlike MIDI files, MusicXML
allows you to transfer the sounds and graphical elements in
your file to other applications."

I have a friend who has Finale and he said he doesn't have
this option of 
XML. Do you know why? Does Finale require a special plugin
for it?
