OK Noel, Thanks for the insight. I am tracking with you on the logical representation of 8 pairs of bars. That is what I was expecting. It becomes a code to represent the sets of chord pairs. In your example the code is from 0 to 5.

Does your example work for you?
| C| F| C| G| C| C| F| F|
| C| F| C| G| C| Dm| G| C|

I tried it with the 16 chords you proposed. Alas, I get the same output
Show Form display
[A] ,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
[A] ,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
[-]
,99

OH WAIT IF I replicate the 16 bars and make the song 64 Bars long . . .
then Show Form displays
[A] ,0,1,2,3
[A] ,0,1 ,4,5
[A] ,0,1,2,3
[A] ,0,1 ,4,5
[A] ,0,1,2,3
[A] ,0,1 ,4,5
[A] ,0,1,2,3
[A] ,0,1 ,4,5
[-]
,99

The mystery is a little less mysterious, with the 64 bars it begins to show the Song Form code.

I experimented with several other combinations of chords in 32, 48 & 64 bars, the results were erratic, unreliable and all over the map.

I am going to move on and try go on living without this SongForm report. cool
Thanks still for the help RrR

C|F = 0

C|C = 2
F|F = 3

C|F|C|G|C|Dm|G|C
Second section...

C|F = 0 (this has already been defined)
C|G = 1 (also defined above)
C|Dm = 4 (it's a new chord pair so it takes a new numeral)
G|C = 5 (another new chord pair)

This means, that if I want to use repeats, I could repeat the first 4 bars of the first section and and then jump to a second ending for the last four bars represented by chords 4 and 5.
