Useful to know, thanks. It's on Chris Johnson's OPro resources site,
BTW, http://www.chris-johnson.org/ovationpro/applets.html
and now installed here.
A dirtier way of doing it is to use the Quick Save applet from David's
site, which also has a button. This saves the current document in a
Temp directory in the same directory as OPro, creating this directory
if necessary. If the directory is empty, it saves it as Document1, and
the next time as Document2 and so on. If any files are already in
there, it uses the first vacant Directory* number.
With best wishes,
Peter.
