Alison,

Okay in the Sib-Access menu, you'll find system items. Enter on that.

Now look for the metronome mark in bar 1 (right near the top, and Enter on 
that.

Now you need to hit enter and then you should be able to backspace three 
times to delete the 120 and then type a different number. Then press escape. 
Then tab back to the score.

If this still doesn't work, then try first setting the zoom level to 62.5% 
(Ctrl+Alt+dash) and then do all the steps above. Text editing is much easier 
at 62.5%.

If you're still stuck, give me your phone number off-list and I'll call you 
before I head for home.

Dave

Hello, Dave,

I have loaded the file fine into Sibelius. I wish to change the tempo and
have tried consulting the access guide, but all it says is go to systems and
press enter on the tempo you want. Nothing seems to happen when I do this
and it keeps asking me to press Alt, ctrl shift and f5. Please can you help?

Kind Regards,

Alison.
