Hi,
I am looking for 2 midi programs.
1) Program to convert midi file to sheet music.  I used Music Time 
before but it was old and doesn't work very well on WINXP. 
2) Program to scan sheet music and convert to midi.  Don't know if 
this possible.
All inputs are appreciated.

Just about any sequencer software will print sheet music from a MIDI file.  
Notation software will print more voices or parts, and is capable or more 
complicated key signatures.  For free, there is Jazz++ available at 
http://www.jazzware.com  For about $29 there is ProAudio8 from 
www.pgmusic.com

As far as scanning sheet music and converting the resultant files to MIDI 
files, the more expensive software packages work better than the cheaper 
ones, but still an enormous amount of editing is necessary.  A program 
called Smart Score works with Finale, and Sibelius has a product that works 
well with it - supposedly!  Check the shareware music machine at 
http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/  for the free stuff, demos and more.

For printing Midi, any MIDI sequencer will do it as Carol pointed 
out. If, however, the music is complex (8 staves) or you want 
printing power take a look at NotePad Plus ($24.95) by Finale 
www.codamusic.com.

Also, the music scan program that Carol mentioned is part of Finale. 
For SmartScore (formerly MusicScan) as a standalone, go to 
www.musitek.com.

I use SmartScore Songbook Edition for converting sheet music to midi.  You
need a good scanner and some trial and error runs to come up with the
correct resolution for your particular scanner. Rick
