Can I have a hyperlink(??) in one section on OneNote that points to another
section?
Easy Link Creation Tools
FreeWare for easily creating links for use within OneNote or anywhere
else.
ClipName:
Available at:
http://www.mainsoft.fr/freeware_en.htm
From the site: "ClipName is a Context Menu extension copying the full
pathname of the right-clicked file to the clipboard. This new
version supports copy of multiple filenames either as a space
separated list or as a CRLF separated list. DOS filenames (8.3) can
now also be copied as well as the URL encoded name and the UNC name
for remote files. Version 1.2 now supports a Copy command for
filenames without including any path, URL Encoding for multiple
selections and <WORD> style encoding for Microsoft Word, Microsoft
OneNote,..."
You install this handy app by right-clicking on the ClipName.inf file
included in the archive, which is ironic because that is just the way you
use it. Once installed, ClipName will show up on the right-click context
menu of any file list. Naturally it works within Windows Explorer but it
also works within file open and save dialogs. This makes it even handier
for use within OneNote because the file open dialog opens to the folder
of the currently displayed section.
When used, ClipName creates a link string in the Windows clipboard
formatted according to various standards. The latest of which is the
<WORD> format link created just for us OneNote users after the author
read some of my posts in the microsoft.public.onenote newsgroup. Once the
string is in the clipboard you can paste it anywhere you want. I use it
to create links to files on my OneNote pages without having OneNote
copying redundant versions of all my reference files into OneNote's My
Notebook folder.
Outlook Linker:
Available at:
http://www.teamscope.com/otherpro/freeutil.asp#linker
From the site: Outlook Linker™ provides the ability to generate links to
other items in Outlook. It is a system tray applet that
automatically generates a hyperlink for the current folder or item
(message) and places it on the clipboard. The hyperlink can then be
pasted into any MS Office document, Web page, e-mail message, etc
This is fundamental to the efficient and productive use of shared
items in a Exchange public folder system. Unfortunately, Microsoft
has not provided a convenient way to get access to these links
This app does almost the same thing as ClipName except it does it for
items within Outlook instead of files. It works a little differently as
well. Once installed like any other program, you must have Outlook
running before you can start the app. When you do start the app it sits
in your task tray waiting. You select an item in Outlook then right-click
on the icon in the task tray and choose a menu item for your preferred
format. (You can also set options for double-click actions as well.) This
places a link string in the clipboard based on the format you have
chosen.
Since it can't be started unless Outlook is running you can't just put
it in your StartUp folder. What I do is put it on my QuickLaunch bar
right next Outlook's QuickLaunch icon. Then, when I need to create a
link, I can easily start the app from my QuickLaunch bar and then use it
from my Task Tray. When using it remember that you have to select the
Outlook item but not open it in order to correctly create the link.
