Thanks! Works beautifully! I don=E2=80=99t know how I overlooked this. I used this = all the time to look at multiple files (usually with 4 windows open) when I was writing code. In fact, I could really keep the reference in a separate file for simplicity.

I haven=E2=80=99t tried it, but it sounds= perfect. Thanks!

Works beautifully! I don=E2=80=99t know h= ow I overlooked this. I used this all the time to look at multiple files (u= sually with 4 windows open) when I was writing code. In fact, I could reall= y keep the reference in a separate file for simplicity.
