I found some very easy-to-read musical dictionaries on the web. They are an 
excellent way to look up the mysterious meanings of the musical text.

Feel free to ask about the ones you don't know.  I probably know lots of
them.

Thank you very much Kevin for your good memory.
Looking in the expression lists, I found that I was familiar to some of them
like PPP to FFF and Cresc, but others don't mean much to me. I see what I
can find in the manual. Cheers, JPR http://myspace.com/jeanphilipperykiel

  To enter expressions, type CTRL E to enter the expression text field.  I
  think you then right mouse click to bring up a menu of expressions that
you
  can select.

  Thank you Dave,
  so you mean there is no special hotkey for entering expressions.
  Alternatively, I thought I saw something about Sibelius respecting the
  velocity of notes input from a MIDI keyboard but I can't remember where it
  is. Did I dream? Cheers, JPR http://myspace.com/jeanphilipperykiel

    JP,

    Browse through the create menu in Sibelius, and just play around with
all
    the different text styles you can enter. There you will find a way to
  enter
    expression text.

    Then look at the lines you can enter. There you will find hairpins and
  other
    lines that affect the playback.

    I won't quote the Sibelius manual because I haven't used it very much.

    Dave

    Hi all,
    I've been looking in vain in the different manuals for ways to enter
  dynamic
    information such as piano and forte. Instead of telling me how to do it,
    could you please tell me where to look ? As a Sibelius novice, I will be
    asking all sorts of silly questions like this one. This leads me to
  another
    question.
    The Sibelius reference manual that comes with the software is a real
pain
  to
    navigate through, even after converting it to a text file.  I asked
  Sibelius
    about an electronic copy of the entire Sibelius user guide but they said
    they couldn't provide it. Is anything like this available from Sibelius
    access?
    Cheers,
    JPR
