Harold and Phil, you are very welcome.

Harold, your post reminds me that, in order to follow the method I described, one 'should' know how to determine what key a song is in, and that's a different topic. I just wanted to make it clear that, even if someone did not know, you could still do the steps I laid out. Just pick something arbitrary, like one of my examples.

The reason for entering the key signature into BIAB before your enter a song, is that the program guesses the accidentals much more accurately. Example: if you are in the key of C and use the mouse to place a note of F, you will see F natural. But if you have set the key to D and place that same F, BIAB will make it F#. This intelligence is a great time saver.

Also, for anyone reading this, transposing isn't hard. For example, since a Bb instrument (all the ones Phil mentioned) is pitched one full step below a C instrument (like piano or guitar), you must raise the notes one full step higher to compensate. [Tenor sax,technically an octave and a full step.] Anyone playing a Bb instrument should also learn to read music in concert pitch so they can play from a part written for piano, guitar etc. Just play a note one full step higher than what is written.
