Topic: "Remove" problem with Songbook

I've got kind of a good problem to have.  I have maxed out my songbook.  I didn't know there was a max, but apparantly there is.  That's a good problem to have.  Anyway, I started a new songbook and figured to do songbooks by genre.  So I started a "Country" songbook and figured to move songs from the first songbook into the Country songbook. 

1. There doesn't appear to be a way to move songs between songbooks.

So then I figured I'd just "Remove" Country songs from my first songbook and re-add them to the Country songbook.

2. I can't "Remove" songs from my songbook.  I get an error message that the file can't be found.

Any suggestions for Songbook management?

Re: "Remove" problem with Songbook

Hi Zurf,
Having a full songbook is a good thing . . . it means you have found lots of stuff you want to play. The exact same thing happened to me - I maxed out my first songbook and then realized it  would be useful to have different books for different stuff.

To manage your songbooks, look way down at the very bottom of your book's listings. There are some options there for copying, moving, deleting, etc. Simply mark the little check box by the songs you want to move or copy or zap and then click the option you want.

Songbooks have a 100 item limit - it is a purely arbitrary maximum. I have several songbooks where I keep different stuff. Hey, now that you have 'Country' book you should also start a 'Western' songbook so you can play both kinds of music!

Alright, now stop messing around on the forum and practice!  James
