Make sure that there is an X in front of the stylename in the Style window slot, so that BiaB won't generate her own accompaniment at the same time. If there is no X in front of the stylename at the present time, then RightClick on the Stylename and select, "disable style" from the little dropdown menu.

Then go to the File menu and choose, "Make a standard MIDI file"

Open that MIDI file in RealBand or Powertracks, highlight all of it but the first bar or two or three that is the Intro, and Delete all the rest of the MIDI notes on all tracks.

Save this as a MIDI file again, but under a different name.

Start a New BiaB songfile inside BiaB.

Open that MIDI file inside BiaB using the Import MIDI file command, set the 1st bar to be the bar after the MIDI intro bars, and start entering your chords etc. to build the songfile.

Use F5 key at first bar of Intro to silence the autoaccompaniment instruments so that just the MIDI instruments play.

Use F5 key again to unmute those instruments where your first chorus bar starts.

The MIDI should play its intro p to that bar, then the Style file you hace chosen for BiaB and that song should take over.
