Does ActiveNote run smoothly with Windows XP or Windows Vista?

I tried to find the contents of a note with Windows' "Find"-Function, but it didn't work. How do I find my note again?
Click with the right mouse button on your StartNote-icon in the taskbar and choose "Find" from the menu.

I like to disallow the usage of the configuration-dialog for my LAN's users. Can I hide this menu?

Until now, ActiveNote worked without any problems. But now, there is no more caret (cursor) visible. What to do now? I use Windows 2000 or I installed a new Version of MS Office.
ActiveNote 4.0 is working also on your system without problems.

I put ten OLE-objects into my note. Is it correct, that the note's size is now more then 2MB?
I'm sorry, but that's correct. OLE-object, which can be inserted into notes since version 3.5, are a beautiful thing, but they need much space - in memory and on disk. Try not to embedd the objects but to link them.

If NoteMap is running, my system cannot shutdown.
Use the current Version of NOTEMAP.

If I shut down my system and some notes stayed open, I get a message like "XYZ is already opened", when I logged on the next time. What to do?

My "SmallNote" doesn't stay on top, I have to deactivate and reactive the option to make it work.
Download the current version of ActiveNote to remove this bug.

Suddenly one of the toolbars disappered, even it is marked as "visible". What happened?
If you resize the Note to the right, you'll see that the toolbar is next to the other.

I like to send my note to the desktop of my colleque. What to do?
Either, you use the current Version of ActiveNote to send the notes directly via TCP/IP, or you use the program NOTEMAP. Look at "Readme.RTF", chapter 7

I'm using Version 2.0. With some passwords, the note will be destroyed. What did I wrong?
Nothing. It's an bug. Use the version 3.2 to eliminate it.

I like my note to be displayed after starting Windows. What have I to do?
You have to create an shortcut to the note (not to NoteIt.Exe) in your startup-folder, or you have to save your note in the folder C:\WINDOWS\STARTMENU\PROGRAMS\STARTUP.
If you are using Version 3.2 or above, all notes you'd opened while shuting down will be opened next time, you log on.

Although I have finished the "Config"-Dialog with "OK", the note appears with the old settings, the next time I've started NoteIt. How can I change that?
This seems to be a bug in Version 2.5. Use Version 3.2.

How can I insert the current date/time?
Press F5.

Can I use more than one font inside my note (for example: headers)?
Yes, of course. Version 3.2 provides this feature.

Can I change the standard-folder?
Yes, since Version 2.5.

If I click "minimize", I get an error-message like that: "Wrong filename". I'm working with Windows NT.
Ignore it or use Version 3.2.

An information I found here doesn't seem to work. What can be the reason?
Check, if you are working with the current Version of ActiveNote.
