How can I get rid of the stock hymns? It confuses my volunteers that they can't save updated versions but it doesn't happen enough for them to remember to copy it into the regular database first.

I've tried the filter option, but it doesn't seem to have the option to remove stock hymns from the searches.

It would help if the stock hymns were marked in some unique manner.

Dick and Joel - Got you both covered....

Dick - If you want to uniquely identify the Stock Hymns you can do the following:

Select the Songs Panel
From the main toolbar select Songs > Show > Source
You should now see all songs labeled with their source locations.  In this case you are interested in the Stock Hymns but all sources will be shown.

Joel - You cannot delete them but if you want to hide the Stock Hymns (or any song database) do the following:

Select the Songs Panel
From the main toolbar select Songs > Search Databases then un-check the ones you do not want to see.  In this case you are interested in the Stock Hymns but you can hide others as well.  Using the tip for showing the Source above may help you decide what to hide.


Hopefully this will help you both resolve your questions.

There we go. That's what I needed.
