Rick,

There is NO way to see Sysex in Finale - as far as I know it
doesn't even SAVE any of the sysex stuff.

You CAN use Finale to send program change messages
and program the pistos accordingly.  What I do
is get a file ready in Finale, then export to
a MID file, which I open in Cakewalk.  
I then start up a blank file in cakewalk, (using the proper
channels - 12,13,14) hit "record" and proceed to make
my stop changes, which I then cut and paste into the OTHER
MID file (the sysex commands)

It is a bit labor-intensive, but once you get used to it, it goes
pretty quickly.  I tried to decipher the sysex, but the hexidecimal
stuff makes absolutlamently NO sense to me
<G>

Have Fun!

Jonathan
