Usa culpa.

Yeah, mine too. As an aside (and pulling us into offtopic 
relevance <g>), one of my staff tells me the latest GExperts for 
Delphi has a handy Todo-displayer (based on tagged comments 
in your project!). I can see the value in that approach n'all!

Two steps: 

1) back up notes.tbs and try loading it with Notepad, even Word 
(or best of all, the List command in 4DOS/TCMD if you have 
either of those).  There's some binary in there, but your note 
bodies should be viewable and able to be cut and pasted in step 
2 below.  Revert to an earlier back up of notes.tbs (you have 
those, right?) if the latest copy doesn't seem to have the content 
that was there before things went awry.

2) Uninstall Turbonote and reinstall (you can download the 
current install EXE from http://TurboPress.com/tbnote.htm if you 
don't have it), then make new notes and paste the old ones back 
in. Hope that does it for you.

It usually results after a system reset or crash of some flavour 
(i.e. more common on Win9x than NT, but in any case more 
common for developers than most).  TurboNote has been 
downloaded over 40,000 times since December, so we've seen 
this problem reported enough to want to try change things to 
make it *much* less likely in the next release! <g>
