An odd problem with screen clippings

[Sheila]

Hi, Gang,

I've been using OneNote 2003 for a few days now, and I absolutely love it!
However, I'm having a problem with my screen clippings. When I try to paste
them onto a *subpage*, they won't stick there...OneNote automatically opens a
new page instead and puts it there. I don't WANT them on a new page; I need
them to be on the subpage.

Does anyone have any experience with this who can help me out? 'Preciate it!

Unfortunately I can not say for ON 2003 (I'm using 2007).

But as a workaround:
You could solve the problem easily with Cut+Paste.

Thank you so much for your suggestion. As soon as I read your reply, I went
into OneNote 2003 and tried it, and it worked! When I played around with
several different techniques yesterday, cut and paste didn't seem to work,
but I must have been doing something wrong because it worked just now. It
seems that sometimes I have to coax OneNote into doing what I want it to.
Sometimes it argues; sometimes it listens to me. I appreciate your response.

Change the screen clipping settings so that it just puts the clipping in
the clipboard. Then you can paste it wherever the heck you want it.

Well, that's a brilliant suggestion, and I'll do it. Thank you!
