i want to write a laboratory notebook for my PHD dissertation. i have to record experiments i perform, and id like to do it with a program. what i need to do is be able to enter information (text, load images, use checkboxes to record parameters). Then, i want to be able to save ALL that information in a single file. basically, when i save a file, i want PB to record and save all the text, all the images, and all the states and values of radio and check buttons to a file. then when a load a file, i want PB to read the file, and load the text, images, and states of all buttons. any ideas?

Take a look at the packer library for putting your images and option files together in a single file. The preferences library is nice for creating and modifying files to hold your preferences/options.
