BTW, another approach to this, that would likely be faster, is to just type the chords that you want without the rests..
ie)
E/B,E/F# E/D,E,G# E/B,E/F# E/D,E,G#
then, in a different bar (eg. bar 1 beat 1) , type one chord with the rests like this E...bdpg
Then choose Edit-Copy Rests, and copy from bar 1, beat 1 to the area that you want to have the rests applied to all chords. That would likely save you some typing!
Yaaaaaayyyy, PeterGannon!!! You rock my world. The "Edit-Copy Rests" approach worked like a champ!!
You know, after 10+ years using BiaB I really never even noticed that command in the Menu before (guess I got complacent & thought I was a "BiaB-Know-It-All"..., well that'll teach me to pay attention whenever I upgrade my version!). You have saved me countless hours of work & stress trying to meet my deadline.
So, since there were so many **very kind** people trying to help me with this (or at least to keep my spirits up), I figured I would at least post a little down-and-dirty, no-frills sample of the piece I was working on when I started this whole "long chord entry" adventure.
A little info about it:
It was not edited/remixed/mastered in any way..., meaning that it is just a straight as-is export from BiaB (note all of the selective use of rests on individual instruments). It was entirely generated by BiaB with the exception of the sound of a Nylon Guitar (MusicLab RealGuitar) playing fingerpicking patterns I had previously made and being triggered by midi notes on the BiaB Melody track, and of course, the vocals which were previously tracked in SonarPE, bounced down to one stereo audio file, and then imported into the BiaB Audio track (No TC Harmony used).
If this piece were for a film, it would be what plays while the closing credits roll but, since it's for a live-theatre production it plays while the actors take their bows and the audience is exiting the theatre. This play is (**yet another!!**) modernized, set-in-present-day retelling of the classic Romeo&Juliet thingy, but from the Juliet character's perspective (Oh..., how clever, these playwrights!). The play is titled: "Nightime", and hence the title of the song. (Blah, blah, blah..., Shut-up Rina!)
Anyway here 'tis..., hot off the harddrive:
Nitetime
So, I'm exhausted now and tomorrow will be mixing/mastering day to get ready for Wednesday's tech-in.
Thanks loads to everybody..., I couldn't have gotten through it without you!
And now..., Rina takes a long nap:
LOL!!!!
Ciao,
Rina

Just a small thing for the sake of accuracy. You got your problem solved which is great and you probably don't have time to look up something as silly as this but still... Urban-Legends Now, it's possible I'm falling victim to the same "don't believe everything your read on the internet" thing too. The thing is I will from time to time research something like this just because I'm a curious type and there's several other sites that have tried to find that actual attributable quote from him and they can't. The TV industry quote is supposedly real, it was published in the SF Examiner in 1985. So far I haven't found anybody who can provide a citation for the music industry quote, it just appears as a third hand account like "he famously said" or the like. The lawyers call that hearsay. Does your book provide the actual source like where it was originally published or he said it in some interview with the journalist's name? If so I would like to know what it is. Anyway, that's enough of this trivia. Good luck with your project. Bob

Nice job Rina. Thanks for the sample, and the nappy time avitar- although I'm not completely sold she's getting ready for a nap!
Was the tune made up mostly of RT's? Please post the finished track. It's sounds like a winner is in there. Nice writing and singing.

10+ years as loyal user and since you seem like 20 years old, it means that you started to use BiaB as a 10 y/o kid. With such fresh perspective you will going soon to receive many questions about BiaB here 
Btw, NICE voice, song and melodical sense. Good luck on Wednesday's tech-in Rina!.
