Olly Memory Breakpoint no-show

Hello all,

Perhaps this is a simple question but I saw nothing in past posts regarding it.

I'm using Olly 1.10(s2), I loaded up a basic Crackme and set a breakpoint
on GetWindowText. Olly listed two occurances of that API call and it set
to break always.

I proceeded to step through the breaks, and after noticing my entered
serial in memory I set a Breakpoint->Memory->On-Access.

Which did break correctly on the first instance of the prog accessing my
serial.

My question (sorry, long-winded) is in the VIEW->BREAKPOINTS window,
my memory access breakpoint is not listed... WHY? (The occurances of
GetWindowText are there).

Are memory breakpoints just "single-shot" and therefore are not displayed?
(I assume since address &/or module is unknown at the time of setting)

I was therefore unsure if the breakpoint was "still active" or if once it was
triggered, it was removed/unset.

This also annoy'd me for times, the only way which I can tell if a memory breakpoint is still active or not is by right-clicking on the memory location which I setup the breakpoint, then check "Breakpoint" menu item and see if there's a "Remove memory breakpoint" item there, if it's still there I know its active, otherwise its removed.
