About the InReach Product Line

The InReach(tm) Product Line is a series of applications designed to make it extremely fast and easy for people to get at the information they need.

Our key ingredient to these products is a user interface and database engine that saves the document file workspace, including the positions and arrangements of all windows and icons, and restores them exactly as the user left them when a information category (such as a SmartFolder or a SmartLibrary) is selected.

InReach Notes is a product utilizing SmartFolders(tm) to organize text notes.

InReach Documents is a product utilizing SmartLibraries(tm) to organize links to files with icons and OLE 2.0 document viewing.  It's just like a Super Program Manager.

Working with Notes is just like Working with the NOTEPAD Application that comes with Windows, with just a few exceptions:

2. The File Menu contains a "Mail..." command for sending notes via E-Mail.

3. The Search menu items have been put on the Edit Menu for InReach Notes, including a the addition of a "Replace..." command.

4. Menu items have been added for the management of multiple notes (Notepad can only edit one at a time), including "Close" on the File Menu, Most Recently Used Files on the File Menu and "Cascade" and "Tile" items on the Window Menu.

That's it!  If you know how to use Notepad, then all you have to do is learn how to work with SmartFolders and you can use InReach Notes!
