I've figured out how to add Mandolin TAB to the plucked instruments section of the wizard. But when it makes the tab is makes guitar tab ( 6 strings) instead of 4. Any ideas on that?

George,
I'm afraid it's another limitation of SW. You need the full Finale to make those mods. If you have a friend with Finale, they could provide you with a document that was set up for mandolin TAB, and you should be able to use that as a template in SW.

Hmmm, anybody out there with Fianle want to help me out and make a template with a Mandolin staff and Mandolin TAB lines?
Thanks.
