There's an option in "tools, other" to display the onenote icon in the system
tray - useful if you want to create screen clipppings. The check box is
ticked, but the icon doesnt appear. Any ideas for a solution:

What happens if you uncheck it, exit OneNote, restart the computer,
start OneNote and recheck that option?

Thanks Ben. I've tried that route before and it usually does the trick. But I
was after a permanent fix. Incidentally, I found the following on your
onenote FAQ site which I will try out. It said:


7.10 Since installing SP1 the tray icon for OneNote has disappeared and I
can't seem to get it back.
Yes, that's a known issue.

Create a new text file using Notepad (or the text editor of your choice)
and paste everything between the ====s into it.

============
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\OneNote]
"FirstBoot"= -
============

Name that file: ontray.reg and save it somewhere like the desktop where you
can easily find it. Close OneNote and Double-click the Ontray.reg file to
add the relevant line to your registry. Restart your computer and it should
work fine.

You can download the file, already made, here. Please note - this file is
provided without warranty or guarantee. Please make sure you have a
known-good backup of your system before you add/edit anything to your
registry.

Thanks again
