hello,
Are there any sources for acquiring band in a box songs that are playable
within the program?
Thanks, Keith

The only downside to this approach is that the bar numbers don’t seem to be
printed out. So you have to do some careful counting. Maybe a feature request
to PG Music!

Thanks again Peter.
I think I even know what all this means. Grin.

Subject: [freelists-midimag] Saving BIAB songs to a text file
Okay, I found the option to save a BIAB song to a text file.
Hit Alt+F and arrow down to “Save Special”.
Hit enter on that to bring up a list of different formats to which the song can
be saved.
Hit enter on the choice “Save Song(s) to text on clipboard or File(s)”.
This brings up a dialog in which you have a number of options that will
determine what parts of the song are saved.
Then you can either have the text automatically copied to the clipboard (and
then you can paste it somewhere yourself) or save it as a text file.
Here is an example of the full output that you can get:
[Song] [Title Nuages - Django Reinhardt]
