Introducing Corel Sticky Note

Corel Sticky Note is an electronic notepad that includes bitmapped imaging.

Sticky Note  allows you to insert notes and bitmapped images into any program that supports Object Linking and Embedding (OLE). Use a Sticky Note when you want to leave yourself a reminder, note a change in a document, or place a comment into a program. Add one of the bitmapped images provided with Sticky Note, or include your own bitmapped image to customize your Sticky Note.

You can access Sticky Note from the Edit menu in CorelDRAW 6 or insert a Sticky Note as an object in most other programs.
