Importing Notebooks

[McFly]

Hey All

I've just got a new Tablet and I want to import my OneNote Notebooks from my
previous machine. I can't see any way of doing this except by opening the
files indvidually and rebuilding the notebooks.

Obviously this is far from ideal - does anyone know of a way around this?

Copy the files with Windows Explorer from one computer to the other. Is
this 2007 or 2003?

thanks - i'd managed that step on my own!

it's 2007

and i worked it out last night.

i have multiple notebooks, each notebook has it's own folder and in each
folder is a contents page. double click the contents page and it opens in
OneNote and opens all the other pages in the folder too.

can't believe there isn't an automated way of doing this though - are you
meant to use OneNote on one machine for the rest of your life?

Actually, there is File, Open Notebook as well and you just pick each
older that represents a notebook.
The manual way isn't really much work or very difficult, so I don't see
a problem in OneNote not having an automated import feature.
