Songview comes with a file with some public domain songs. You can create your own file from scratch or import songs from a number of popular formats. Missing the words of a song? Just add it directly from CCLI Song Select. You can add or edit songs with the song editor. Notice a spelling mistake while you are projecting a song slide? Just right click on the slide, open the slide editor, make the changes and close the editor. Job done. You can continue to show slides while you do this. Got a file with all American spellings or British spellings? Use the editor's search and replace facility to change them all in one go! Once you have your song file you can set the preferences so that Songview loads it each time you start.

To work with songs, select the Numbers or Titles tab. The numbers tab is useful if you want to use numbers to identify songs, hymn book style. As you run the mouse down the list of songs you will see the full song text appear. Click on a song or song title to show it in the preview windows. You can add it to the playlist by dragging the title or song into the playlist.

The easiest way is to use the search facility. It does a full text search of the database working on song words, titles and authors. You can also search for songs having all the words in a list. As you hover the mouse over the song titles it shows you the full text of the song making it easy to find the correct version. A right click will add the song to the playlist, a left click will display the song in the preview windows.
