How do I change where OneNote stores files

At work we have a limited amount of space in our profiles and My Documents
resides in that profile. How do I get OneNote to store its files somewhere
else?

Easy enough:
1.) Create a folder for the notebooks somewhere on the HDD (could be a
mapped network drive also).
Move you files there.

2.) From the main menu: "Tools | Options ", "Safe",
change the path to the location where you want to store your notebook
files.

P.S. You could also use a USB-stick as the storage place. This way you
could use your notebooks on other computers too (f.e. at home).
If you would want to do that, pls ask for instructions - it's easy but
not trivial.

The main thing is:
The notebooks would no longer be stored on the computer and opened from
there. They would just be sitting on the USB-device and would be opened
from there.

For the details pls see David Rasmussen's article:
