Hi!

I have nearly finished a project wich consist of 900 different finale files.

I need to change some of the information I  accidentally put in the Copyright field. To be exact, I need to remove

the text:"Copyright ©" and substitue it with "Source:"

Is there any way to make Finale do this automatically in all the files, or maybe a workaround of some kind, or do I have to open all the files, one by one and change the text manually?

I suspect that it can be done with the FinaleScript plug-in.

 

Unfortunately I do not know FinaleScript very well.

Hopefully a user with FinaleScript expertise will chime in here.

 

Also, you may get some help in this other forum:

https://www.finaleforum.com/index.php

Some of the users there are very experienced with FinaleScript.

Thanks!

I managed to find a way to change the text with FinaleScript.

But I think I need some more guideance using more of FinaleScript. It comes very handy to be able to control this part of Finale.

I followed Your link to finaleforum, and tried to register, but somehow I can not register. At the bottom at the register form there is a question to be answered. It goes as follows: "Every other letter from the following: finaleforum:" I do not understand what this sentence means. I can not see that it is a question at all.....

Any help?

That’s a challenge designed to keep out the spambots. Every other letter gives you fnlfrm. That only happens till it understands you are real and then the challenge goes away.

Thanks!!!

I did not translate the word "letter" correct. I only thought of the word "letter" as a sheet of paper someone has written on, then put in an envelope and sendt by postal mail. For some reason it did not struck me that the word could have other meanings....

Thanks again!
