According to the user manual, the "L" column in style picker indicates that "Line Based Lyrics" were found in the file. The "N" column means that "Note Based Lyrics" were found. I don't believe that SongPicker has been updated to include the presence of "Bar Based Lyrics". (Wishlist item?!?)

The user manual also states:

Convert line-based lyrics to bar-based lyrics

In the previous versions, there were line-based lyrics, which could be entered for each line on the Notation Window. You can no longer enter this type of lyrics, but if your existing song has line-based lyrics, Band-in-a-Box can convert them to bar-based-lyrics. This option allows you to choose how the conversion should occur when the song with line-based lyrics opens. The default is “Always (auto-split),” which will convert line-based lyrics to bar-based lyrics and splitting them into 4 bars. If you choose “Always (don’t split),” line-based lyrics will be converted but they won’t be split into 4 bars. You can also choose not to convert line-based lyrics automatically. If the current song has line-based lyrics, you can press the [Convert now] button to convert them to bar-based lyrics.


So it looks like you need to do the conversion, but it also appears that the Songpicker might need updating accordingly to indicate Bar Based Lyrics instead of Line Based Lyrics.

Not sure why your lyrics don't display if you do convert them, however.
