Thanks John. You explained that a lot better than the manual which I've just been reading. It seems a little like a leap of faith in some ways . Also, I'm finding that I'm having to force myself not to be so anal that each note has to be correctly entered before moving on to the next one. Well, I guess it's time to give a shot.....

Update: Guess I'm a bad shot (although I shoot expert on an actual range). I couldn't get past a couple of bars. I just wanted to enter a whole note tied to a dotted 8th followed by a 16th in the 2nd bar, and more dotted 8ths, 16ths for the next 3 beats in the 2nd bar. The only thing that came out was 4 quarter notes in the 2nd bar. For the time I spent, I could have entered the whole song in half the time in Sibelius. Not knocking BIAB, but it's notation didn't work for me. Editing existing notation in it is okay though.
