Thanks to John Ford who had sent a private message with a hint to try, but that doesn't help. For whatever reason the laptop behaves in a different manner than my desktop computer. I have deleted everthing following the "HipHop" section in BBW.LST and 13308 entries is the figure shown in the top row of the style picker.

I receive the same number with all Jazz styles.
Then I took some courage and selected all Jazz subgroups and still 13308 entries.
Then all inclusive Reggae and still 13308 entries.
Then I added all the Rock groups and received 13308 style entries.
I kept adding more groups and the figure stagnated at 13308.

When I added the "Styles with RealDrums" it must have added another 6693 styles, because then I received the error message again.

I deleted this group except the "A" styles and received "?", yes: 13308 style entries.
Then I added the "B" styles, later the "C" styles (meanwhile 179) and still: 13308 style entries.
Now "D" to "F" (222 entries in that group) and still: 13308 style entries.
Adding "G" to "@-GRUNG^2.STY" (226) and still: 13308 stlye entries.
Adding one more stlye: @-GRUNG^3.STY (227) and still: 13308 stlye entries.
Adding one more stlye: @-GRUNG^4.STY (228) and still: 13308 stlye entries.
Adding one more stlye: @-GRUNG^5.STY (229) and still: 13308 stlye entries -- but I also receive the error message, even though the style has been included.

One more: The error message comes twice that the file can't be written but still writes the file. *) Even the number is updated to 230 styles in that group. All other numbers seem to be chiseled in stone.

I add five more lines to BBW.LST and see what I get. Result the same as above: Several error messages, but the number of Styles with RealDrums is updated to 235. All other numbers remain as they were before.

Now I took the entire BBW.LST as edited by PGMusic. Guess what: "Thousands" of error messages. But after the fourth or fifth time I managed to find the last and the StylePicker opened with all figures updated. Except that there are still 13308 style entries found. The next time trying to pick a style the same procedure started again..."Thousands" of error messages...


There is definitely a bug

Guido

*) Edit: It probably doesn't write the file but shows the updated figures on the screen.
