I'm just guessing what this post means.
Do you see a blue bar at the beginning of those measures, and lots of grey space to the right of them?
If I am correct, perhaps you meant to enter a chord, but clicked on the measure number instead of inside the cell where you would enter a chord? If so, it means you inserted a part marker for the "A" substyle in each of those measures. Click on the measure number again, and it cycles to Green, then nothing, then Blue, then Green etc. indicating A and B substyles for Blue and Green, respectively. In most measures except the beginnings of song sections, click on the measure number until you do NOT see any colored bar. The measures will re-align and close up the 'holes'.
BIAB also has a setting that helps prevent some of the empty grey space, even when you do want lots of part markers. If This sounds like something you want, write back. Otherwise, can you please try describing this problem again?

Thanks for help I found that using the arrow keys. To put in a F then using an arrow key helped.
Where I am at now is to put in 36 bars with no repeats and an ending at 36.

There are three numbers, for the beginning measure, ending measure, and number of choruses. Make these three boxes 1, 36, 1

Hi Paul, Here's a picture of the three boxes that Matt is talking about. I've put a yellow rectangle around them.  Adding on to what Matt has said ... Don't worry that your song will be 38 bars long on the screen. Those last two bars are the ending that BIAB adds once it has finished playing your 36-bar song. Regards, Noel
