How do I copy pieces of some scores into one score
I want to attach approximately the ending half of
one score to the end of another score as the first task.
Then fix it up.
How do I do this?

1] Create several new measures in the score (hold down [Ctrl]b for a few seconds)
2] Copy from one score (select and then [Ctrl]c)
3] Paste into other score (click on empty measure after the music and then [Ctrl]v)

Yes that's the ordinary way to copy and paste on a single score and it works.
But the stuff I copied gets lost when I exit one score and enter the other.
Is there a way to have two scores open at once?
Or is my windows 7 computer messed up?

I was more careful and it worked.
Don't really know the difference.

To facilitate copy/paste...
You can view two scores at the same time by using the Menu item: View, and check the box 'Documents Side by Side'. (Of course, you must have the two scores already opened in separate tabs within MuseScore.)
Doing so will allow you to see simultaneously:
a) the score from where you copy, and
b) the place into which you paste.
Regards.

I still can't copy a section of one score into another score.
I don't know how to have two scores open at once.

What goes wrong when you you try? It should be as simple as opening then, then opening the other. You will have separate tabs for the two scores. Just click the tab for the score you want to view.

When I open the second score the first disappears,
like only one score is open at a time.
I don't see any tabs.

See below:
Even if the tabs weren't there, copy and paste would still work the same, though. Open one score, copy, then open another, and paste.
