I get divide by zero errors when I run the old versions but it should work on any version, the current version of Chord Picker uses CTRL+F2 or right click Edit Chord, not sure when the Edit Chord option came in but if 2011 has that you should be right else you could modify it to use ALT+F5. Either way it will insert the chords but might not add remove rest, shots, holds or pushes.
EDIT: I found my old hard drives and ran BB from it, the only thing that needed changing was when you Edit the Chord in 2011 the chord is already highlighted but in 2018 it's not so i just took the highlight line out of the script.
For earlier versions of Biab the only thing that needed changing was when you Edit the Chord in 2011 the chord is already highlighted but in 2018 it's not so i just took the highlight line out of the script.
Small suggestion... Might be a good idea to add a version letter somewhere on the home screen. That way we call all see if we need to upgrade. I am using your address link to see if it is a new version or not.

Very minor suggestion: I noticed that using the rest, shot or hold buttons adds the dots but doesn’t recognize if you change your mind, so if you use more than one button it just adds more dots. Perhaps consider checking to see if one of these three already exists and if so, clear it and start the chord fresh.

Thanks Matt for feedback. You have Rest, Shot, Hold, Push that add to a new chord you just entered. You have Set-Chord-Rest(,Shot,Hold,Push) that changes an existing chord to. You have Remove-Pushes Remove-Shot-Hold-Rest that will remove existing ones from the chord.
Update 2.1e beta Transpose Chord /Slash (Transposes the /note only) Fixed Set-Chord-Hold Added Set-Chord-Rest(,Shot,Hold,Push) (Will remove any current Rest Shot Hold Push first)
Biab Chord Picker Tool 2015 to 2010 (if you can right click to edit the chord then it will work on your version, and if it's already highlighted then use this version) It will work on older versions below 2010 but most of the editing chords won't, it can be modified to edit the chord via Alt+F5 Chord Options window, it depends on how many users are still using the older than 2010 versions ????
