Yes I do and it _IS_ annoying.  It seems to be based on the order of the 
windows stack. i.e. if the project window was on top when you exited or went
to DOS, the project window will be number when when you come back.

I don't actually have a solution but wondered if you had noticed this.

The other thing I have noticed it that there is a menu selection specially
for the Project and for messages but they only sometimes get used. i.e.
mostly they are greyed out and the messages and project entries are just
part of the normal window list.

If anyone does have a solution, please cc: me on the note.
