idea, it may be helpful and instructive for you to share your file here (or
privately with any number of our experienced users) to get some commentary,
both about the code structure and general coding style, and potentially
things that could be improved/simplified/etc. Lots of good things to learn

Thank you Abraham. I will try to come up with an example soon. I would like
to learn how to accomplish this without resorting to kludges that create bad
coding. My philosophy in coding is that something should be written once (if
at all possible) and then included as many times a necessary. That way, when
it's time to do a revision, you just change the single definition and all
other instances of that passage get updated as well, rather than having
multiple versions of the same notes. That's a nightmare.

Talk with the group soon as I get a little further along with the project.
