I used the title funtion to make a "title" for a video. I also used
the "title function" to create an outro title so I could write a
message that would be viewed at the end of my video. The outro message
wound up mixing with the "title." I figured the program will not allow
you to use the title function twice, and if you do, you will get the
results I did, both texts on the "title."

So I deleted the outro title, but it still appeared on my "title." I
also rewrote the "title" and deleted the outro and I still get the
mixed text. What is going on? Why is it happening? What do I do to
solve the problem?

Thanks,

===========================
You don't say which version of Movie
Maker you are using but in version 2.1....

For the beginning...choose...Tools / Titles
and Credits / title at the beginning of the movie...
Enter your text...

For the end....choose...Tools / Titles and Credits /
credits at the end of the movie...Enter your text...

That should work as expected.

BTW, the other three options...require that
a specific source file be selected when you
go to...Tools / Titles and Credits...

Thanks for the suggestion. I wound up deleting the project and
beginning a new one from the collection. This time it worked.
