The purpose of this program.

FileNotes by JAM Software integrates with Windows to provide the 
capability to store notes about file system objects including files, 
folders and shortcuts.  FileNotes will maintain your notes when a 
file system object is moved, copied or renamed.  

FileNotes includes the FileNotes Explorer that provides three 
views of your notes and is independent of the Windows integration.

FileNotes integrates the following features into Windows:
FileNotes Brief column in the Windows Explorer.
FileNotes tab on the properties dialog of any file system object.
File system objects with associated notes are tagged in Explorer Style Open/Save As dialogs.
Explorer Style Open/Save As dialogs are enhanced to display an associated note.
Explorer Sytle Save/As also provides the ability to add notes when a file is saved.

FileNotes includes a component that is notified by Windows whenever a 
change occurs to your file system and will ensure the integrity of your 
associated notes when a file system object is moved, copied or renamed.

The FileNotes Explorer is a stand alone utility that provides the ability to view 
and maintain your file system notes and quickly identify objects that have 
associated notes.
