Hi Michael,

I have been successful at entering my entire score into lilypond and it looks great!  But there are some things I need to change (such as the 4/4 instead of "C", accidentals, and stem settings etc..)

I haven't, for the life of me, been able to figure out how to do this in one simple command. 
I know there is a way...

Have a look at section 6.4.3, "Time Signature" - you'll find what you're looking for near the top of the page.

You'll have to be a bit more specific with regard to other issues; without an idea of what you're trying to do, it's a bit difficult to suggest a solution. Could you perhaps post a minimal example with your requirements?

I want to be able to type one command at the top (or bottom if that's more appropriate) of the score that will change these things for the whole score.

I read about style sheets, but I got errors for everything I tried from the examples... I tried it in the score, I tried it in a separate file with the \include " file.ly" and different variations... but nothing worked and it's getting frustrating.

You can put global tweaks in \layout, then it's a matter of choice whether you keep it in a separate file or insert it into your \score block.

Regards,
Neil
