Latest updates:

v 1.71 - fixed a bug where deleted comments were not removed.

v 1.7 - Property Page now has a Help Button. It looks for TreePad format help but if no program is associated with .hjt file type it resorts to ebook stand-alone help. If it finds neither in the install folder, it's disabled. Stand-alone ebook help is available as a separate download. See the Readme file for the link.

v 1.64 - reverted to TreePad help to reduce download size. Stand-alone available as separate download.

v 1.63 - changed TipOff help to TreePad ebook stand-alone viewer format.

v 1.62 - added Help in TreePad format, along with TreePad Lite download link, to start menu folder.

v 1.6 - TreePad File button only enabled if comments exist. Some installer/uninstaller improvements.

v 1.5 - added Copy With Comment drag & drop.

v 1.4 - added multiple line comment support.

v 1.3 - added Tooltip support for .7z 7-Zip archive type.

Included is a converter to read TipOff .tof files and output a simple TreePad .hjt file. Although Tooltips are supported only for archive file types, you can use the Property Page Comment Tab to comment any file. With the converter you can create TreePad files that can be edited and imported with TreePad Lite. Use it as a convenient way to build your utilities database.
