How do you make a double bar line. (Notepad 2008)
I'm using it for a key change.

EDIT: How about braces? How do you put those in?

Click the "staff" icon, then right click the clef and it should say "add bracket."

For double bar lines, click the "measure" icon and then double click the measure you want to put the double bar line in.

I can't seem to find either of those icons you're talking about... This is Notepad 2008, right?

I don't think that can be done in Notepad 2008.

Try to do everything; you're bound to succeed with at least one.

Drat. So I'm going to have to ask someone else to do it for me, huh?

K Olimar, here it is. And thanks! The key change is at measure 41.
And if you could just go over the little things like braces for me; there's only so much I can do with Notepad.
Of course, if you don't have the time, don't bother. The bar line is most important.

Anyways, it's been a while and I upgraded to Notepad 2012. Can I use double bar lines and braces now?

EDIT: Actually, I can't change keys halfway through at all, can I?
