Damn, Bill, I was tempted to commiserate w/Claudine about this when I read your response. This is stupendous, to borrow fm Barney - my 7-year-old doesn't pay too much attention anymore, but I have 22-month-old who walks around pointing at the tv and saying "Bop" (Baby Bop, Barney's little green dino-friend w/the pink bow and shoes) - as I (almost) always keep quick-n-dirty documentation in WordPerfect of (almost) all my work-in-progress. I grab the screen and drop it into a file in the left cell of a 2-column WP table. Then I date/time it in the right cell and describe what I'm doing to the extent necessary, i.e. how much description is required to remind me 6 weeks fm now what I was doing today? What's been missing is an easy way to drop the text of the command(s) into the WP doc, rather than just the bitmap. This is great and, lemme' tell you, this form of "rough" documentation has more than paid f/itself in repeatability and Q/A - now, this handy-dandy tip will make it even more of a time-saver.
