jazzflute,
Thank you for your response and your answers to my questions.
Observation: There have been a few updates since build 818. Build 822 is the current release. It is available
+++ HERE +++.
Please update to build 822. After installing the update, please open the StylePicker. The program will prompt you to initiate a rebuild of the StylePicker database. Check if the styles are available after the update as some of the fixes were the StylePicker.
2nd Observation: Be observant of the drive letter Windows assigns the external drive. Since you are running the program from the external drive the XtraStyles must be installed to the external drive. My suspicion is the XtraStyles were installed to the computer's primary (C) drive.
Last thought: This forum section is primarily so PG Music can present answers to frequently asked questions PG Music Support receives. Not many forum members visit this section. In the future you may want to ask questions in the
+++ Band-in-a-Box for Windows +++ forum section. It will receive many more views and there is a much better chance your questions will receive accurate answers.
