Robin, if you read a file such as article.doc, how about creating a text file named article.doc.txt and entering notes into it?
I used to work on a computer operating system which allowed notes as a file property (the Amiga), but I don't believe Windows does. hth, Chip -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, November 27, 2009 3:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Ideas for notes in documents Hi, I'm spending my day reading through lots of articles for work that I've collected. Many are long articles about my profession. I'm reading most in Word 2003 or in Adobe Reader 8. After reading an article, I want to be able to summarize the salient points and keep them with the article to remind myself why I saved the article and how it might apply to projects I'm working on or points I want to tell others about if I pass along the article.. What have others done to accomplish such a task? I do have Kurzweil 1000 and I think that has a notes section, but I try to use the mainline software when I can, so I'm wondering if there is a way others have found to add a summary some way that stays with the file, either in the file itself or as a file property. Thanks.
