music notation program "Finale 2009"

I have had "Finale 2009" for few years but
I was so lazy to use it and I also I was kinda reluctant to use it because It seemed to be very hard and I had trouble writing basic things such as different voices, rehearsal marks, and dynamics.

The most trouble I had when I first used it years ago was writing music in different voices. I wanted to stem different directions according to their voice parts, but
because I did not know that I was required select different layers for different parts.

After learning Finale in the class and doing the assignment, I feel more confident and I am willing to write music with Finale in the future.
