What I did is to insert the date and time at the beginning of each
MemoPad record I saved. You could also put something like *ProgramMemo*
at the very beginning of the MemoPad record (I liked to StrCopy that
to the beginning of my MemoPad buffer, then cat all the rest of my data
to the buffer after it). This way, you can see which ones are which via
the list.
