My problem is with picking styles. When I type the name of a song in style picker, ex. Those Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Summer, the name of the song is underneath. When I choose it, the styles that come up aren't remotely appropriate for the song. I would appreciate help to determine what I may be doing wrong.

Probably you are not doing anything wrong. Sometimes (often?) the styles listed are not ideal for the song title. They may be just the closest match to the song title you have entered.
The browser suggestions are based on song characteristics like time signature, tempo and feel. Styles get ranked by the number of characteristics the song and style share. So the highest rated styles should share several characteristics with the song.
Another consideration is the demo song for a style may not give you a good idea how the style will work in your song. The demo songs are designed to showcase capability, not remind you of a certain song.
One "trick" that you may find useful is to create a short chord sheet of four, eight or sixteen bars that reflect an important section of the song. Then when you select the "4 bar preview" option in the "Play Using Current Chord Sheet for Song" you get a much better idea how a style works with the song. Just remember the 4 bar preview is always bars 1 to 4; you can't select which bars to audition. When the 4 bar preview is selected the style you used to create the chord sheet is not replaced while if the option is not checked the style is loaded into the chord sheet for the audition.

The Song Title Browser was not intended to have exact matches, given that there are more song titles in the database than there are styles in Band-in-a-Box. What the Song Title Browser does is match styles to a song title based on genre, time signature, "Feel" (swing vs straight, 8ths vs 16ths), and tempo - it just helps you narrow down from thousands of styles to a handful.
User Video: Band-in-a-Box® + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!
Since AI is now readily available online as a resource for many things, we recently put together and shared a video where we demonstrated how to create a song using Band-in-a-Box®, ChatGPT, and Synth V; we've also shared a Bob Doyle Media video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band in A Box, showing how they utilize AI for their song projects. Now it's time to share Henry's video, Band-in-a-Box + ChatGPT = Impressed the BOSS!, where he demonstrates how to use ChatGPT and Band-in-a-Box to whip a song project together in only 3-4 hours.
Visit Henry Clarke's YouTube Channel, Henry Clarke - Senior Musicians Unite, to find a large collection of tutorials showing the viewer how to achieve amazing results using Band-in-a-Box®!
If you've reviewed our Support page, you've probably noticed the Videos page, which separates our Band-in-a-Box® tutorial videos by category: Overview, VST DAW Plugin, Setup, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and there's even an Archive category to go down memory lane... (You'll also find these videos on our YouTube Channel.)

User Video: Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box®
The Bob Doyle Media YouTube channel is known for demonstrating how you can creatively incorporate AI into your projects - from your song projects to avatar building to face swapping, and more!
His latest video, Convert MIDI Chords into AI Vocal Harmonies with ACE Studio and Band-in-a-Box, he explains in detail how you can use the Melodist feature in Band-in-a-Box with ACE Studio. Follow along as he goes from "nothing" to "something" with his Band-in-a-Box MIDI Melodist track, using ACE Studio to turn it into a vocal track (or tracks, you'll see) by adding lyrics for those notes that will trigger some amazing AI vocals!
