So I would have to have an A Major chord involved to make the change? I only used A7 because the Minor Key in the book I am using showed the Dominant as being a 7th chord. It doesn't specify particularly and I think in one part it says it can be anything minor, major or 7th included.

I thought it would just be about the root note rather then having to be a major chord to make a modulation change.

See this is why books aren't so great you can make assumptions which prove to be wrong.

What if I was to play a major chord in that position, would the modulation be correct then?
