Note based entry is very easy. You should be able to do a standard hymn in less than 10 mins. in my experience. It just takes a while to get the hang of it. To be honest if you were going to put in the notes and words for something like Amazing Grace 3 choruses, you will never find a piece of software that comes anywhere near Band in a Box. It may be the biggest thing that has ever been devised that seems to be overlooked.

Then again most standard hymns are kicking around in .kar type formats somewhere and you can import the whole she-bang into Band in a Box quite handily.
