Thanks Bill for your comprehensive reply. I try to use the To-Do list as a research log, and attach general notes to To-Do items, though am not yet conscientious enough to do this properly. Do others do this? How do others manage a research log in Legacy?
I would guess that you could put your "History of a Town" type note in a relevant To_Do item, if they are just working notes. Actually though, I've got a town history attached as a note to the location in my master location list. Still, your point is well taken. There are a lot of general type notes that don't really fit anywhere.
