Dan Escapa is on a tear releasing a set of new PowerToys for OneNote 2007. What's going on is that a whole bunch of PowerToys were written internally on the OneNote team and by some of our "friends" inside the company over the last six months.

Hi there

What would make OneNote 2007 mobile far better is if someone could make it possible to dial a phonenumber directly from a note.

It is amazing that Microsoft did not think of this.

Looking forward to it when it comes.

Paul

OneNote 2007 is saving my butt. I can't believe how organized I have become. One question: Can OneNote search for a particular tag? I would like to search for the "clock" tag itself. I've inserted it next to future tasks that can be done once other steps are completed. Just the clock icon is inserted next to existing text, so the tag's text is not there and there is no text to search for. Can I search for that particular tag icon and not see the rest of the tags? If not, no problem, I will just go back and put the words "Waiting For" next to those items and use a text search in the future.

Menuhin - thanks for the suggestion. I passed it on to the team.

J. Schoeps: you could publish (or save as) the entire notebook to PDF or XPS and then print that. You could also do this via MHTML and print from IE.

I've become a OneNote Evangelist. I inherited bookeeping & management of a trailer park just as my memory started to go! OneNote IS my memory!! Thanks for an awesome product.

I would like to print out the entire Notebook to give to someone. It looks like I can only do a section at a time. Is there a way?

Thanks,

Jody

I have been looking for options to organize my projects and ideas and to organize the documents and notes that are associated with those projects according. Visio-like drawing and organizing softwares with flow charts and hierarchical organizing and linking capability would be great

I found a solution that I'm looking for outside of OneNote

MindManager is a brainstorming software, and it has an add-on that is capable of linking the elements of its charts to specific notes in OneNote

That software cost a bit, while I have a Microsoft Visio license already; it would be great is such features are implemented in Visio... linking to specific notes in OneNote

Jeanette, I think the suggestion was to use screen clipping, as opposed tot he "send to onenote" button. Try Windows-S, then clip the visible part of the email you want in OneNote. This puts an image with searchable text into OneNote.

David, you can use screen clipping for parts of a web page as well. Or print the web page to the "Send to OneNote 2007" printer driver to get an exact replica. The reason a web page you put in OneNote via copy and paste (or use the IE button) does not look identical to what was in the browser is complicated but in brief it is because Onenote is not a web browser, and is designed for editing on a 2D surface so it has different display capabilities.

Bill: the search does not work on substrings, sorry.

2 suggestions for improvements:

1) I'd like to be able to collaps all the subpages, so i only see the page level.

2) I'd like to have, per section or per notebook, an automatically updated summary page of tags (without having to "show tagged notes" "create a summary page" and finally deleting the old one)

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ton

"Jeanette: Use the Clip function, just like you would in IE. Just make sure that you have OneNote set to keep the window on top. You can actually do a screen clipping in any program!"

That's my question. Is there a clip function in Outlook? And if so where is it?

All I've been able to locate in Outlook is a OneNote button on the main page, which sends the entire email to OneNote. In IE the OneNote button sends what I've highlighted.

I've been unable to find any way to get Outlook to send only the part of an email I highlight. I haven't located a OneNote button on the email window I'm reading. The only option I find is copy.
