It's just piling two or more rows of notebooks sheets (when they are
horizontal, columns if they were vertical), like in the Display Properties
Dialog that appears in Windows 9x, when you press right mouse button over the
desktop.
For things like that, piling notebooks is more user friendly that making a big
scrollable notebook.

I did that,  but two problems arise now:

*The label background color changes with respect to the others. (It takes
white color I think).
*Main problem: the label doesn't respond to mouse clicks (doesn't open the
corresponding child of the sheet). Strange problem, because with the tab key,
when one arrives at the label, and them press Space, the corresponding child
does open. I will send the mailing-list a copy of the program if nobody knows
an answer.
