Re: song book help
From the songbook tab select the radio buttons you require, Top line Select format ="By Artist" then tick box" include artist with each song" and then I would click" Last name first" then" The & A at the end". The last two items will be to your preferences. Then in the select fields box select" Artist, Title, Brand", then" None" and "none again in the last box where book id or disk id would be".
Now select your range of songs to print, so select entire song book then create.
This will create a file in the folder C/MTU/Hoster folder named Songbook.rtf
open this in either Microsoft Word or Works Wordprocessor.
When it opens in either of these the format will look like this
3 Doors Down; When I'm Gone; Power Hits CDG
38 Special; Hold On Loosely; All Hits
38 Special; Second Chance; NuTech
Now these instruction can be slightly different depending on your versions of these programs you have.
From the edit tab select Find, in the box enter ";" The Semi Colan not the quotes. then in the replace field enter a couple of spaces, then click find next then replace, if it looks right click replace all.
This will replace all the ; with a space. next go to edit and "Select Al"l then from the format tab select "Font" from the window you should be able to select a font that you like and bold or anything else, you should the end up with something like this:
3 Doors Down When I'm Gone Power Hits CDG
38 Special Hold On Loosely All Hits
38 Special Second Chance NuTech
But by messing about with the formating you can achieve different layouts,
From inside these programs you can select to have 2 columns on a page saving you a lot of paper.
Hope this helps.
