This is a wonderful example of a bad question. (In fact, it isn't a question at all.) It lacks context, anyone attempting to help you will need more information. Have you read http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ? It's not a very long read, and the topics it covers are very useful. The few things I would say to you are:

1) Read the Learning Manual once through. It's not very long, and it's a very useful tool to understanding how to get what you want out of lilypond.

2) do a quick search on the mailing list archive at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/ for your topic. The default search is by score, but I find reverse chronological order to usually be more helpful.

After all that is done:

1) Ask a question (not simply a statement of need)

2) when asking your question, make it specific. As this is a volunteer program, you're more likely to be helped if you help yourself. Tell us what you want to do, what you've tried, and what the result has been. That provides much needed context.
