The MIDI-FAKEBOOK is on 2 disks . It contains 500 songs - 250 on each disk .
As DOS allows only 114 files in any ROOT directory , the FAKEBOOK files
are put in subdirectories- a:\FakeAtoI and a:\FakeJtoZ . If you have a hard
disk you should copy all of the song files to your c:\bb subdirectory ( the
same subdirectory as the bb.exe program and your other song files.). If you
have a floppy system - after the bb.exe program has begun you may insert
either of the FAKEBOOK disks . The program does not alphabetically sort the
song files ( to save speed when loading hundreds of songs ), but you
may sort your song files in a variety of ways with file utility programs such
as PC TOOLS . The fakebook is initally sorted alphabetically . The
FAKEBOOK files are song files just like any Band-in-a-Box song files you would
make - so you may edit the chords in them if you wish . Due to the large
volume of songs you will probably use the <F7> function key in Band-in-a-Box
this loads a menu of songs ONLY in the style that is currently selected - the
<F3> load will load a menu of all 500 + your songs . Also remember that
the last item in the file menu in the Band-in-a-Box program allows you to
change subdirectories - so you may categorize your songs by making
subdirectories if you need to organize the song library .
