Dear Keith & Paul,

thanks for your responses! I have seen the passage keith mentioned in
the manual, but since - in jazz - one usually deals only with chord
symbols, I didn't see this as the way to go.

paul, thank you for your suggestion which is just what I was looking
for: there's nothing to change, really, but to be more specific about
the chords ...

have a good weekend,
Rob
