That would be great Jon, I'm not so keen on lambasting a product that has such obvious potential, but I rarely encounter these sorts of problems these days. If you have better luck I'll then gladly look at my own configuration.

As an aside I left my 13 year old to play around with NoteWorthy composer when I went to rehearsal last night. By the time I got home 3 hours later he was in bed having composed a 24 bar piece, notated and printed it for a school project. He hadn't used it before - I guess that means that the average adult could pick it up in a week or two.

Regards, John
