They are similar, but the office one doesn't collect everything the
windows one does and it holds 24. it's kinda fun to open both and watch
what happens when you copy... the office one does office apps and
notepad and a few windows apps, not windows explorer cut/copy. It
doesn't pick up the cut/copy for some programs - for some reason, I'm
thinking photoshop, but I might be forgetful, it was too long ago when I
played with both.
The only time I would not use the file, send email option is to send
just one note container - copy and paste into a message would be easier.
I also leave the OneNote as attachment option enabled and delete it when
I don't want to send it. it's easier than adding it back.
(e-mail address removed) is an email alias you can use for suggestions or
log onto the web interface (open the help pane in OneNote using F1 -
select Communities) and file it as a "suggestion". They are going to be
monitoring the suggestion threads and hopefully, the comments added to
it will help make it even better. Only people viewing online can see the
"suggestion" icon, so you might want to say it's marked a suggestion in
the message body or subject so people using a (real) newsreader knows.
I hope this all makes sense, between the early hour and my new glasses,
seeing what I type is hard. <g>

Diane--
I was referring to
http://www.duxcw.com/faq/win/xp/clip.htm Clipbook
Viewer, and I guess it isn't one of the Powertoys.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
I was just curious if the Office Clipboard is different, and I'm
betting it might be--I'll have to search around for its file.
I have Outlook 2003 so I guess that the built in method for One Note is
going to use OL by default unless you tell me differently. In One Note
File>Send to or clicking email sends the "item" since I'm still getting
them straight to OL mail/wordmail as an attachment. I don't see any
other email options in One Note. I appreciate your going over the
copy options for me--it helps and I see it in the book.
Since Tools>create Outlook item allows you to create an appointment,
task I would have liked as another feature of its Outlook integration
"create an Outlook folder,"--it would have been a convenience since
right now and in SP1's beta preview--I don't see it. There is
probably someplace to suggest things for MSFT to include in the final
version if it's not too late. I guess you can always send the
attachment as email and move that to a folder and that gets the item
classified and stored in Outlook the way you can do with any mail or
other item there if you want it there.
"What is a One Note document?"--just my clumsy way of describing items
in One Note while trying to get used to it.
*Dragging and Dropping from One Note to Other Apps*
Can you show me how to do this? I've tried and I just can't drag and
drop something *from One Note.*
I know you can drag and drop files to One Note, and make it easy by
keeping One Note on top of other applications, but you're supposed to
be able to drag one note "files" *to other Office apps* The One Note
tour says:
"it's easy to transfer notes to other documents. Use drag-and-drop to
transfer typed and handwritten notes, graphics, and photos in OneNote
2003 to other programs." I can't figure out how to drag or where or
what to grab from One Note to some other app.

What is a OneNote document? A note container, a page, a section? To
copy a whole page, control a, control c. To copy one container, click
on the bar at the top of the container to select it and control c. To
select several, but not the entire page, drag the mouse to select
them, then control c. Select all the tabs to copy a whole section,
then control c. you can paste the copied data into word or outlook -
you'll get one large text file either way.
1) I would use the built-in method for email unless I didn't have
Outlook 2003...
2) you can't send a OneNote file to outlook and create an outlook
folder. Best you can do is savei it as an attachment in an outlook
item, but that results in duplicate files.
3) They go to the office clipboard. I'm not familiar with the power
toy, so I can't say what you'll see there.

I'm using MOS 2003/Win XP SP2 RC2.
I'm trying to find out the best way to send a One Note document to
Word and also to send a One Note doc to Outlook to store in an
Outlook folder or to send as Wordmail in Outlook. First, with Word,
I've used (on the One Note toolbar) File>Send to Word. Then if I
wanted to send that document I could use Insert>File>on the Wordmail
toolbar. Is there a better way? Would Send to Mail Recipient be
another way or easier way (from the One Note toolbar?)
If I wanted to send a One Note document to Outlook to store as an
Outlook folder, what would be the best way?
If I wanted to copy/paste the One Note document, would that involve
the *Office Clipboard* distinct from the regular clipboard that can
be viewed from the Control Panel Applet as a Windows power toy?
Is it possible to take a One Note document and drag it into Outlook
or do you have to move it to a new folder in One Note first?
Thanks much,
Chad Harris
