Importing multiple XMLs. Tips please

Hello, what is the best way to import multiple XML files into one Dorico document so that I can make a book of songs? Thank you

You can select more .xml files in your folder and importing them all with one click. Dorico will ask you by each file whether you want to merge to existing instrument the suitable parts or you don’t, what is quite tedious if you’re importing too many, but that’s all, quite a straight and easy process. Is this what you meant, @faucetmusic424 ?

Thanks for taking the time. So I should choose “merge to existing”?

In general - Yes. But depending on the source of the xml it may not be 100% successful. You may still end up with multiple instruments that you did not expect.

If that happens, there’s a relatively simple set of steps to move the material to the correct instrument.
