Finale 2011b Windows

Good Morning,

I am working on a lead sheet that has a G#7/B# heading to C#m in the key of E. I am of the school of retaining literal chord spelling as well as preserving harmonic function, so I am not inclined to rewrite this as Ab7/C. However, that is a separate discussion.

My problem is Finale wants to change my chord to G#7/C every time I write B#, and I haven't figured out how to stop it from doing this. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Addendum:

Finale won't even let me use Ab7/C, changing it automatically to G#7/C. How infuriating.

Uncheck "Simplify Spelling" in the chord menu. Or, if you prefer to keep this option active, type F###7/A###.

N.

Great that did it! Thanks!
