Were you all to do this, I promise I would use it responsibly, for the betterment of humankind...or at least the Buffistas...and not for a death-ray with which I could decimate entire regions of the Earth, holding the planet for ransom until every nation capitulates and proclaims me King of the Planet.

Sometimes when working in Access or the Visual Studio .Net API, I open up Notepad and use it to store snippets of code, bits of SQL, etc. Is there anyway to get an application like Notepad to always stay on top of other apps? Or some program similar to Notepad that can do this?

(This is for XP.)

Notepad++

The view menu has an option for always on top

It is also an excellent text editor.

That program looks cool. Thanks - I'm downloading it now.

So who's managing the Nuclear Reactor for Miracleman Paypal fund?

Not me. There's this whole plausible deniability thing.
