How to save transposition in songbook

Hi everyone,
How does one save the transposition in the songbook? When I "create" a new song for my list, I choose style, tempo, pads, backing, and instruments, and I may transpose to a different key (+3 or -2 for example). Everything is saved for the new song in my list in songbook except the transposition. The transposition goes back to "0" , so when I pick the song to perform out of the list, it is again on "0," so I have to again punch the transposition key to get it to where I want it. How can the transposition be saved?
thanks
Mike

Its in Edit Book 2 tab - just change the M. Transpose and it will work.
Cheers,
John

Hi John,
Thanks for replying. I've tried Edit 2, and I have changed the M. transposition (for example +3), then I "write" it and complete all of the steps, but when I go to re-open the songbook, (my list that I've edited), it will play again on "0" even though the transposition says +3 on edit 2 page.In order to perform the song, I have to manually punch the transposition key + three times. There must be something that I'm doing wrong. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I use this transposion setting in SONGBOOK all the time so….
check that you do not have transposition lock in GLOBAL mode
