Since this is my first time using linked parts, I don't know if the pr...

It isn't a linked part at all. The correct note appears in the source score. The problem was only with the extracted part. By the way, all the other notes are correct; only the one note was the problem.

Finale 25.3.0.276 for Mac I extract parts from scores frequently, but a few times I've noticed wrong notes in the extracted parts, different from what is in the score. The latest example of this is in an extracted alto saxophone part. The problem note is supposed to be an F natural which is written ...
