Theo Buis found a bug in the merge pages powertoy. He lives in the Netherlands and the addin was crashing when he tried to merge pages. Since "owning" these tools is just as important as creating them - we want to respond to bug reports, questions and...

A great part of working in OneNote test is the people on our team. Take Jeff Cardon ( again ), for instance. He was wanting to know what types of addins people were requesting the most. I mentioned the method we tell users to use to make a page a subpage...

----edited info---- Jeff Cardon fixed a crashing bug in the merge pages addin. If you tried to merge pages in a read only section, the addin would crash (although OneNote kept running). You can get the update at http://johnguin.members.winisp.net/Shared...

There is a fix from the Vista team for problems related to synching an offline file to a server and the file getting corrupted. Dan Escapa has the details on his blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/descapa/archive/2007/08/17/onenote-and-windows-offline-files...

Tablet PCs are just great. I did not ever want a notebook of any sort for work since I hate being in meetings and seeing people spend time answering email rather than paying attention to the meeting. I never wanted to be one of "those" people. True...

Goodbye, Lenovo Thinkpad X60. In addition to the problems I had in the past, I experienced a new one last week. The lenovo tablet has a sensor in it which determines the orientation of the screen. When a user flips it around, the screen re-orients itself...

For the first time in a long time, I had some time away from work and did NOT write an addin for OneNote. For the record, the Gutenberg addin was written on a plane to and in a tent in Korea. The text importer was written on a flight to Orlando and during...
