I think your problem is that you have "Working folder follows active document" in "Preferences-> General"; so when you open a document it then sets it as the current location.

Anyone got an answer to this?

I have just installed TP onto a new Windows 7 64 bit machine and it is opening up a new instance of TP for every file I open via explorer - regardless of the "allow multiple instances" configuration setting.

Without a sample of a file it is very hard to say what sort of file format you have. It may be a file format that uses multiple ways of breaking "records" into elements and attributes, the possibilities are huge. If you have a special file extension to the file then you could "google&...

Loaded the latest TP version onto my XP Pro works machine and TP is not happy. Thought problems ironed out, if I open a document from the right click context menu then I get asked: replace CUSTOM.BND Replace U2057.tlx and replace all macro files. if I say no then it opens the document and a spurious...

Web Site has had a few changes made to it, so maybe a new version is actually coming soon.

April and the new Financial Year approaching - fingers crossed for the "next release".

So many features that would make it even better than it is, but with respect to TPs fast and reliable current state.

One possibility would be to create a syntax file for a new document class - may not fit your needs, but if you have constant text in a document that you what to highlight then this may be a method.

Have a read up in the help.

do a "find" and "mark all".

then do "edit", "delete", "bookmarked lines".

you could disable "undo" to make it faster.
