I'd love to help Paul, but I have no idea what answer you're looking for, since I don't know what the question is.

Tell BIAB to play the song as many times are you want, or cut and paste should work. Depending on where you paste, you might have to tell BIAB what bar the song ends on. Doesn't sound like a very difficult job, based on your description. Good luck!

What Rick said, or do it the hard way like I do. I unfold the worksheet into one big chorus. Then Insert as many bars as I think I need, then if it is a AB AB C AB C Ending type of structure, I just copy and paste the chords and part markers into the extra bars that I inserted. Then fine tune and tweak from there depending on endings etc.

Good Luck

Paul, Those extra bars are "greyed out" because BIAB doesn't know how many bare there are in your song. Check out the screenshot. You have to specify how many bars by clickin on the "end of chorus" button.

Paul..... get everything set and cut and paste the last bars. Remember, you can always insert and delete bars.
