I may test it, but for now I'm in the middle of a screenplay and want to finish before changing 
anything.

I'm still playing around with the idea I had for post-it notes that would match each document.  
(The notes would be stored in the user fields in the file.)  While working on that, yes, there were 
problems in the BASIC IDE, I think one was this issue.  I'll be doing more with that later, after I 
finish my script.  (There are issues with that, like having to ReDim arrays whenever a new note is 
added and having to close all the windows associated with a document whenever that document loses 
focus and opening them again when it gains focus.)
