I would like to write music using word. I would need to have the base and
treble clef staffs, musical notes, and other symbols. Is there a way to do this? |

If you search the web with your favorite search engine, you can probably find music fonts. However, Word wouldn't be my choice of program for this -- the experience is likely to be painful. There are a number of music composition/notation programs with various prices and feature sets. A good list appears at http://ace.acadiau.ca/score/others.htm. For example, Mozart is highly recommended, though a bit rich for my budget. I have NoteWorthy Composer, which is less feature-laden but lower priced and quite adequate for my needs. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

From what I've been told, you're better off to not even try.
Google the web for a composing/notation program. There are quite a few available & price range is from $100 on up. Regards |:) "bobrewalker" wrote: I would like to write music using word.
