Transfering and Backing Up Songs and Groups (Export/Import)

NOTE: When exporting songs be sure to include "song" in the filename so you will know it is a song archive and not a group archive. Include "group" in the filename when exporting groups for the same reason. PowerWorship will not stop you from trying to import songs from a group archive and vice-versa.
