I am currently using v. 5.10. I would like to start with the last opened document instead of a blank txt file. I looked at reference > General but I could not figure out how to do it. Please advise me how. TIA. James

ben_josephs,
I have a question for you. I had a txt file which I use so frquently. As you suggested, I created tws file for the same txt file. When looked at two files, this is what I see
test.txt: 2,548 Byste
test.tws 121 Bytes
How come the file size of tws was shrinked 20-fold?

The workspace file is a record of your editing session, including a reference to the one text file in that session. The workspace file does not contain the text file.
