I have just received NWC cd 1.75 and I cannot find the whole note (the black rectangle that hangs / juts up from a staff line).
Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

Hi ya - welcome.
All rests are obtained in the same way. Select the value of the note that you want .
Instead of pressing the enter key to get the note, press the space bar and you will get the equivalent rest.
Scully,
Also remember that the whole-note rest can also be a measure rest, no matter what the time signature. Thus, if you are in 6/8 time, and want to put in a rest for the entire measure, the whole-note rest is all you need. You don't have to put in enough rests to make up six eighth notes.
