Transposing from Eb to Db

1998-11-10 05:00 am

I wish to transpose a song fom E flat to D flat. Evertime
I tell NWC to transpose down 2 semitones, it gives me
7 sharps instead of 5 flats. I thought tranposing 0 tones
would change the enharmonic spelling, but it didn't. Please
help.

take Eb piece:
tools/force accidentals
tools/transpose staff -2
tools/force accidentals
Highlight the 7 sharp key sig ctrl-e, select Db major,
Tools/Audit accidentals --see if it worked
