Saeed,

Sorry, I was looking at the wrong version of Sibelius, it's not available in

Dan,
in the Filter sub-menue i don't find any option for the grace notes.
there is just an option "notes and cords" on which when i press enter it
doesn't open a window in which i may be able to select only the grace notes.
thanks.
Saeed
