Made a quickie script to locate lost Notes using CMDOW:
#!/bin/sh
#########################################################################
# Locate Notes - Find the window if not visibile.
#
#########################################################################
#find Notes Window id and Register
/usr/bin/wine ~/.wine/drive_c/CMDOW/cmdow.exe /F /B /T > /tmp/Notes.tmp
cat /tmp/Notes.tmp | grep Notes > /tmp/Notes.win
windowID=`awk -F" " '{print $1}' /tmp/Notes.win `
#echo $windowID

#restore
`/usr/bin/wine /home/mwatkins/.wine/drive_c/CMDOW/cmdow.exe $windowID /MOV 0 0`


Set an shortcut to it, and can use it to restore the lost window.
