I know I can add a custom tab to the property dialogue box. Is there any way I can add a custom tab and call it something like 'additional notes', the layout and properties of which would be similar to the notes tab that comes as a standard feature? I want the custom notes tab to allow me to add notes that are separate from and different to the standard notes; I don't want the additional notes to appear in the standard notes tab. I've been able to add a custom tab and populate it with a notes box. However, the way I've been doing this means that the notes that appear are the same ones as those that appear in the notes tab. I suspect there isn't a way of doing this but I thought I'd ask anyway. The only way round that I've found would be to add notes in the standard notes tab, give them the heading 'additional notes' (or whatever's appropriate) and make them private (as I wouldn't want them to appear in reports). Alternatively, I suppose I could also use a named list. Regards Ed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What would George Smiley do...?
