Is it possible to create hyperlink cross-references between notes.

I am creating a list of definitions in OneNote and am wondering if it is
possible to create hyperlinks between notes within OneNote. For example,
under the definition of 'BPM' I want to create a link to another note page
that has the definition for 'feedback loop'.

Thanks

That is not possible in the current version of OneNote. It's a frequent
request that I'm sure is being seriously considered by the MS development
team.

A few workarounds exist:
1) OneNote supports manually creating "File" URLs. You could create a link
in OneNote that points to another *.ONE file in your "My Notebook" folder.
You cannot navigate to a specific page/subpage/location within that *.ONE
file, so whatever page was active the last time you navigated to that section
will be visible when you click on the link.

2) You might be able to cobble something together using Note Flags. If you
create a Flag for "Definitions", you could potentially use the Notes Flag
summary to navigate to any note that has that flag applied to it.

The easiest way to do #1 below is to drag and drop the *.one file
representing the section you want to link to onto the page in your notebook
where you want the link.
