Version 7 > Find songs with a typical verse sequence?
1/4/2007 1:01:11 PM
We have been using SongShow Plus for a number of years, and we still use the older SongSelect interface. We have also been using the newer online SongSelect interface for the last year or so. Now we want to get rid of the older interface.
Over the years we have modified a number of songs in the SongSelect database. Where we made more major changes (like breaking a verse apart to fit the screen better) we saved them with a tag on the end of the name so it would be easy to see which one was 'ours'. I have managed to find these and move them to the SongShow Plus database and that has been working fine for a while now. My problem is with songs where the only thing we changed was the typical verse sequence. I would also like to copy all of these over to the SongShow Plus database so we can get rid of the older SongSelect database and interface.
Does anyone know how I can find all the songs that have a typical verse sequence? In my experience, the SongSelect songs don't come with a typical verse sequence, so if one exists, it means this was one of our songs. If I had a good way to find them all, I could clone them to SongShow Plus and I would be good to go.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

I've never had any luck with that. We've moved from machine to machine and I always have to reenter all the verse sequences when I reinstall the SongSelect database, even if I import a backup of the user added songs.
