I tried the suggestion of opening the singer’s database with the edit tools option and it does work so you can have two databases open at once. This was an OK workaround but I have major problems with the search dialog box and how it is currently working.chemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Admin…part of what you say is true. However, when you search you still need to click on a singer “before” you add the song so you are still clicking on something. (Same two clicks you had before only different things to click on.) Now if you forget to “change the singer” you get the singer that was last listed. Now you have to change the singer listed on the show because it automatically goes in. This is a real pain in the (you know). When you search you are searching…like for a song…as in “do you have?” When you want the singer’s database you click on it and bring it up or you used to be able to SEPARATE these functions and now you cannot. I believe the search dialog box should clear the singers name and just allow you to search for a song. Once you have it you should be able to click on a drop down of the singers database and add the song and singer to the show. Then CLEAR the search boxes and that includes setting the singer back to null. You are ready to search again. The singer’s database is wonderful and it would be wonderful to have it come up when YOU want it or when you want to leave it open to add songs from it. Clearly these are two different actions that sometimes are the same action. Please do not be so stubborn that you do not at least “look at these functions again”.
