Patricia, Use the arrange feature. This is quite an extensive feature so I won't try to summarise it. You can read all about it in the manual. It lets you select a passage and then do a very special kind of paste which puts the notes on different staves according to the kind of arrangement you want. It's very useful if you're in a hurry and don't have time to carefully work out an arrangement.
