Introduction

The NoteIt program helps you maintain a list of notes.  This can be extremely helpful if you are one of these people who constantly has things on their mind and has a difficult time remembering what you did last week (much less several months ago).  NoteIt provides a simple user interface for you to enter one note after another.  All notes are stored in the same ASCII file which makes searching for a specific entry easy.

In addition, each note is automatically date and time stamped (to the second) and is always stored in the ASCII text file in the order you entered the note.  The format of the ASCII file is "ASCII Quote and Comma Delimited".  This makes it easy to pull the information into a database package if you so desire.  The file is always stored in the same directory as the NOTEIT.EXE file and is named NOTEIT.LOG.

The program also has a "Review" button which simply starts the Windows notepad and automatically displays all your notes for your review.  You can use the search feature of the notepad to search for any item in a note (or date/time stamp).  You can also use the word wrap feature to make it easier to read your notes.  Note: If editing your notes remember to save the file in NON word wrapped form.

Thank you for using NoteIt.  Please don't forget to register the program if you use it past the 15 day evaluation period.
