Quick List - Unable to play music

I have tried and tried to get a song to play that is chosen from my Quick List. I put 10 songs in my quick list and want to skip around and play them during my dance. So, I double click, right click (everything is greyed out) and just about everything else, I can't get the song I highlighted in the Quick List to display in the player and ultimately start playing.

The problem is that you have the 'Edit Music Database' window open simultaneously with the 'Quick List'.

Close the 'Edit Music Database' window, and all functionality in the 'Quick List' will work. If you wish to view the Music Database while the Quick List is also displayed, use main menu option 'Music | Load from Database'.

In case you're wondering why the program behaves this way, it is because when you're in 'Edit Music Database' mode, all changes made in the music player (i.e., changing tempo, pitch, bpm, rating, loop markers or other markers) immediately update the current record in the music database. If I allowed the quick list or history list to change the currently loaded music, it would screw up how the 'Edit Music Database' works.
