Hi.  Everytime I used the VDL2.5 Template in Finale2010 it freezes up and forces Finale to be shut down everytime when I manually enter a note using my mouse.  It doesn't do it with keyboard entry, but when clicking on the template it freezes.  Anyone see this?  I'm running Windows 7 but it did this to on my xp and vista machine.

Have you updated Finale to 2010b?

How much RAM and what processor on the computer?

Are you using the FIN10 templates or an earlier version? Percussion notation changed dramatically with 2010 which requires the installation of some additional files.

I have been facing the same issue.
