When I print sheet music from Sonar, it puts my name on the music; however, it does not put the name I want. It apparently puts whatever Sweetwater decided to set up for me (without asking). Any idea how I can change this without corrupting a bunch of existing files? Thanks!

If I were guessing it is picking up the name from the registry entry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR Producer\X1\User Name" I have never changed the value though.

That sounds right Scook. Recall when we install Sonar it asks for our name. 

yup in x2 it's 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR Producer\X2\User Name

Yes, "User Name" is in every version of SONAR in the registry. I based my reply on the OP .sig

Works for me, Keni.
 
I click Project > Info and then set the values that I want to print out on my sheet music?
 


 

Project - Info works for me. 

Dave has it right. Just choose Project > Info from SONAR's main menu and input your information there for the project. That info will show up in your Staff view printouts.
