Math Calculator

The Windows Calculator does not have that option, so what I wrote will do just fine.

But that's the thing - there are a number off application that adds that option to any window you want.

I use ESBcalc - http://www.esbconsult.com/esbcalc/
They also have a useful UnitConverter...
There are free and paid versions...
You can easily open it using UI.openURL(pathToEEBcalc) and copy/paste results ?

Alternative if your using Win7 or Vista you can add a gadget Calculator to your desktop.

? The tool Jim linked does add Top Most functionality to any window.

Yes and it seems to work quite nicely. My keyboard has a key specifically assigned to open Calc.exe.

I use Calc98 from this web page http://www.calculator.org/download.aspx. It has an option to always be on top.

I also modified a plugin to run calc98 from the tool menu.

calc.rb

i realise that i was just reiterating that it should be standard windows functionality. i used to use fileBOX extender

added faveorites and recents too, but its no longer supported.
BTW isn't there at least a switch that could be added to the program shortcut to tell it to stay on top?
