Parts Problem
I have a piano part in my concert band score, but it doesn't appear as a piano part when opening the actual piano part; a baritone TC part comes up with piano written as the the part name. I can't add a new piano part to the score, or create a new piano part.

Open all the parts and find the one that is the piano. Then fix the names.

Thanks! I guess I didn’t couch the problem well. The piano part, although it’s in the score (complete), doesn’t appear as a part at all. A part comes up with the name ‘piano’ on it, but it is actually a baritone treble clef single line of music. Now, even if I accidentally replaced the music on the part marked piano with the baritone part, it doesn’t make sense to me why I can’t create a new part from the piano line in the score. Arrrrggghhh!
Can you help? Thanks! John.

Copy the notes in the piano part from the score (I recommend using continuous view for this), then go to instruments (press the i key) and delete the piano. Add a new piano and paste. Open the new part. You also might consider saving a backup to your computer first just in case you copy something to the clipboard, overwriting it.

Thanks very much, 'hamsandwichnow' you've been very helpful. I took the risk of deleting the piano part after saving it elsewhere and then creating a new part. It worked! Cheers to you! John Hudson
