Well... ya know some of us just have to be difficult.  ;)
Glad to hear you raised it for the next release, now maybe I can use a font big enough to actually read. 
:cheers:

Now all I need are scrollbars.  (hint hint) :laugh2:

The 100 song limit worked out perfect for me, but I guess there could be the possiblity for a 240 song jukebox like mine or some variation of it.

Scrollbars just aren't gonna happen... at that point you start going from a jukebox to a Windows app, and you start making it more mouse-intensive....

The only place I may put a scrollbar is one that quickly goes through all of the pages; that could be really useful for touchscreen users with very large collections, for who finding a song is currently an ordeal.  I might also put in a slider for volume control.

Kevin Mullins:
Honestly, I agree with ya on the scrollbar issue. And I really don't need them anyways for the application I'm doing. The number one biggest reason I like your software is that it's NOT like a Windows app and yet very flexible and "tweakable" to suit many needs already.

But I am curious if there is a way to read the database once it's loaded to see where songs were placed in the lineup. Like open the db file in Notepad or something and be able to tell what the song number would be for a particular song. (if that made any sense)
See attached file for an example.

ya know..... I really need to update the thread I started on my project now that I'm further along with it.  :P

You would have to go through the steps the juke does... sort the songs into albums and sort the albums by artist, ignoring the word THE when it appeas at the beginning of an album or artist name.  However, I'll add to my request list a way to make the song list dump to a file complete with addresses.
