Having trouble with endings.
I'm having some problems with "endings" in this file.
The song should play from
1.) - Bar 1 through Bar 78 (the "1st ending") then do a repeat, that is:
2.) - Bar 47 through 76 and on to the "2nd ending", that is Bars 79 and 80.
That much works.
At the end of bar 80 (the 2nd ending) it's suppose to go "To Next Strain" which is Bar 83 to Bar 98. I thought by using the "To Coda" function and Bar 80, then the Coda sign at Bar83,
it would "skip" Bars 81 and 82 but it does not.
After playing Bar 83 to Bar 98, it goes back to Bar 47, which is correct, then it should play through Bar 76 and skip to "Last time" which is bar 81 and 82, then stop. It doesn't "skip".
As you can tell, I really don't know what I'm doing here.
Help!
Thanks!

Just let me know what to do about it.
Sorry!

Wow, that's great!
It just has one small glitch at the very end.
The last time through it plays bars 79 and 80, and then your last 2 bars (I suppose 97 and 98).
It should skip 79 and 80, and then play the last 2.
Thanks so much for your help!

Then the "To Coda" needs to get moved to measure 75 (the measure before volta 1)

I see what you mean (it's actually measure 76) but I don't know how to "move" it.
I assume you mean that the volta 2 plus the words "To Coda" need to be moved,
but the volta 2 is "anchored" to Bar 79. Do I need to delete it, then add it to bar 76?
Thanks!

delete, re-add

I did as you suggested but it didn't give me the required result.
Now, on the FIRST time through, it skips over bar 76 (the volta 2 "To Coda") and goes right to volta 1 and the repeat.
(Is it possible for me to send you a "Personal Message"? I could send a screen shot of the actual sheet music, "for educational purposes".)
Thanks!

? The 1st time it should play volta 1, the 2nd time volta 2 and the 3rd time(after the D.S.) jump to the coda from just vefore volta 1. And it does that.

Jojo:
This is perfect!
Thank you so much for staying with me on this, I sure appreciate it.
I hesitate to take any more of your time but I'd really like to know if it was possible, using Musescore, to get it to play correctly, using my original file, which was laid out exactly like the sheet music.
That is, as shown in this screen shot.
Thanks again for all your help!

Double click the To Coda so that you see the brown dashed line and dots anchor. Use Shift + left arrow to move it until the anchor is at the right place.

Louis:
I tried this but it would only move to the right. I wouldn't "back track" up to the next "system".
(Please see also my reply to Jojo.)
In reply to Louis:… by Lloyd S
I meant it wouldn't back track to the PREVIOUS system.
Thanks for your help!
