Hmmm, it is a wonder.  Our welcome text was not significantly longer (about 20
chars longer) so perhaps . . . ?

Thanks, will recompile and report back.

I like the implementation, especially with the tooltip popping up anywhere in the
area.  Thanks.

As always - fantastic!

Thank you.  I had added the "Move To" and this works at the log entry level (i.e., "Move
To <name>) but in the threaded view one does not get the enumerated list of logbooks.

I'll play around with it a little more before re-posting.  When it didn't work as I
expected I read the docs and ran across the confusing text - so I stopped and asked!

Thanks again.
