Figured it out.... Looks like it's in the bar settings. I appeared to have done a lot of copy and pasting of bars which created more red lines than I anticipated. I have a tempo change between verses and choruses.
Seriously every time you make a bar setting in any bar it puts the red underline under the bar no. What many people seem to miss is that you can view and print a text summary of all such bar changes, button bottom left of the bar settings window. Have fun Mike
Cool Mike. I see that button in my original screen shot.
One thing I observed is that if I have a range of measures in the chorus for instance that I have increased the tempo through bar settings, the bars after that range will not automatically go back to the song's tempo. I have to define the next section of measures as the original tempo. No biggie but I would have thought it would have been automatic since I only defined the chorus bars with increased tempo.
HI Steve Bar settings stay in force once changed until you change them again. They are continuous. I find them most useful when the song is unfolded as one long song, the settings printout summary is a lot of help then.
Thanx so much. Now I have a problem. I had to go and help my wife so your message was on my monitor for a long time. Now I have these little bumps on it. So how do I get rid of them?
PS - don't suggest sandpaper. I tried that and that left scratches on my monitor
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I thought it meant "Whoa! Watch out for THIS chord".
Reminds me of a short music story. I used to play a lot of shows. The talent and the music director would go from city to city and hire the best of us local players as the band. We would have to erase all rehearsal markings from the book before sending it on. One thing we didn't erase, though, was the eyeglasses icon we would draw to call attention to something extraordinary, a "watch out" kind of thing. The guy in Hartford would leave it for me (Albany), and I would leave it for the guy in Syracuse etc.

I am a brand new Band in a Box user, and I am having a problem which you seem to have solved, but I don't understand the solution.
When I change the tempo from 120 to 80, and then play the song, the song begins at 80, but after a couple of measures, returns to 120. Can you please help with this? Thank you for your kind assistance.
I will watch for your reply on the forum, but you can email me at deepbluepiano@yahoo.com. Thank you.
As Matt mentioned, look for this red line (step 1), select the cell and press function key <F5>, then change the tempo value to zero (step 2) or press the Reset Bar button at the bottom of the Bar Settings form.
Also, welcome to the neighborhood.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
