I've added an 'add note' script to take the username and date and add it to the top of a note field. The cursor correctly positions itself under this entry and all the previous notes are copies below it.

However, if the notes field has more text than is visible without scrolling in the field, the cursor stays at the bottom of the text.

Also, this feature does not work at all using IWP, so how would I achieve the same result?

Any ideas

I suggest a separate table of notes related to the parent, not one big text field.

I don't see why that would make any difference, it's still going t be in the same format on the layout

Well, user name is not a good idea, since that is the name entered in the FM pref dialog. Use Account Name instead.

Try reporting on a big text blob. It is best to separate these notes.
