Instructions for Creating Sticky Notes
Sticky Notes can be created easily on a Microsoft Windows 7-based computer. These visual reminders on your screen are similar to the small adhesive-backed pieces of paper that people use for to-do lists. The Sticky Notes tool on a computer does not have the option to save or print the notes you create.
