Hi Ed, you don't need to try and funnel the text through file notes in order to show it, the script can just display an alert dialog or show its own custom dialog to display text.

Check out this thread for an example of setting up a help button in a script's UI and having the text displayed when the button is pushed:

The Notes function is a text field that's saved in the .3dm file where the user can record any information they want so it would not be good for a script to funnel its own text through there, that would mangle the user's note information.
