Mo, click here to see an example of Professor Alan Foster's MIDITXT, programmed especially for us so we can post MIDI files here (there's a link there for downloading the program). You have to read his instructions carefully and forgive him for using confusing terms like quavers and crotchets, but the program is really quite easy to install and use if you have a basic knowledge of computer functions. MIDITXT makes a text version of the tune in both MIDI and ABC format, set up in a format that can be posted here. If you set the thread filter to ABC or MIDI and go back 365 days, you should find previous threads that discuss these methods of posting tunes. Sure would be nice if we could get EVERYBODY to learn how to post tunes. Ahem....
Of course, in order to post a MIDI tune, you first have to make a MIDI file. I use Noteworthy Composer, which you can download from this site (click here).

Alison, one RealAudio of "Sunday Driver" coming right up.
