No access to notebook after getting new computer.

[jobguy]

I had Onenote 2003 on my computer with a network location for my files.
After getting a new computer and Office OneNote 2007 I cannot access the
older files. The error message that pops up says I need a password (I
never placed a password on any of my files). I got my old computer out
of the storage room and then was able to access those files.
The network location of the files has not changed.
My old computer has since been recycled and I have begun generating new
data and saving it.
Why can't I access those older files with my later version of OneNote?

Are you being asked for a password by OneNote or a password to access
the share on the other computer? If it is the share, you might need to
be sure that your new computer is in the same Workgroup as the one on
which you have the files stored.

Worst case, (I think) you should be able to copy the Notebook (i.e.,
the directory/folder and all the section files in it) onto a USB key (or
equivalent) and then copy them into your new computer.
