I have purchased Karaoke Song List Creator from airwer.com, and I'm not very pleased with its format. I have taken a look at FastTracks V2 SongBook Creator Plus and KJPro. They both seem more user-friendly and create songbooks more pleasing to the eye, but they still don't do everything I'd like.

What I'm looking for is something that, when arranging by artist, will allow me to print the artist's name in a larger font than the list of songs. It would be nice to also have something that will allow me to include the genre or at least a "duet" designation on songs.

I'm not terribly concerned with price, as I want what I want when I want it...I'm a generation-Xer-in-training. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance! 8)

speedbook at dkusa.com... I love the trial version.

My only complaint is it's structured around singer's last name being the "sortie", where I prefer to do it "first name"...

But Chip, the creator of that software, does have a workaround.


Mostly, I use Excel, and now Access. Carol, my lovely lady, knows a lot about reports with that program... and we're working on doing that together for a project this summer!

Thanks. I found the website okay and downloaded the lite version. I'm really confused about how to use it though...

Guess I should learn my Access so I can actually make use of it.

if you go back to that site, he has a "discussion forum" where people have talked about it. There are complete instructions there how to use it.

Mostly, when I was testing it out, I just selected the 25 discs, and then looked at how the report comes out!
