This is what I would like to do. Can someone please tell me if it is possible?

I want to create a panel of information down one side of a document that
serves as a reminder of what I am writing in the main document. However I
don't want this text to be part of the main document, I want to be able to
open or close the panel of information without opening or closing the main
document and I don't need to necessarily print this information.

I have thought of using 'Comments' to achieve what I want but I don't need
the information to pinpoint a particular word or sentence in the main
documents (as comments do).

Is there a Word function that would help me achieve this?

Hi Millie,
You could use a 2 column table and use hidden text in left column (create a
style), which you can see on screen but won't print unless you turn on an
option in Print to print it.

Hope this helps.

Actually you most probably could use a macro to toggle (hide the 1st table
column).
