Midi Messages

[martin]

Sherry Thank you for your reply which was helpful. I am writing software which takes lyrics for a song from the net into a word processor and allows the user to split the lyrics into syllables and add melody notes from a midi keyboard including the rhythm. This can then be saved as a midi file and opened in Composer. All this works well. Composer recognises midi lyrics pasted from the clipboard but what about chords? Composer seems to use copy and "paste special" for both chords and lyrics but can the chords be embeded in the imported midi file using some kind of meta event like a text event (or some other) in the same way the lyrics are embedded??
