Hi Tim,

You have the dubious distinction of having uncovered a bug with the collapse ties command. I'm writing this up for fixing, and will use some snippets from your file as excellent examples where the collapse ties command needs to be more robust.

Unfortunately the bad news is that there is no workaround that I could figure out for some of these (eg. measure 9) without using the Staff/Split Melody and Accompaniment command. Is your keyboard player supposed to play the bass line as well, or would it be ok to split the score like I did? (eg. Use Staff/Split Melody and Accompaniment, and have a total of 3 staves in the piece, with one being what sounds like a "bass player" part.)

Thanks!
Sherry
