Notebook Renaming

[J Austin]

I am running ON 2007 Trial on an XP Pro desktop. Re-named a notebook (added
a word) and that re-naming appears correctly in ON. However, Windows
Explorer does not show the changed name to the notebook. I have re-booted
but still the name change has not occurred. A laptop running ON 2007 Trial
(on Vista RC1) therefore did not pick up the notebook name change (all other
synchronization between the two machines has been perfect).

Any ideas?

Aloha J,

What method are you using to sync the folders? Are they Shared Notebooks
or ?

Ben,

Yes, they are shared and the sections/pages are synchronizing. It is just
the name that has not transferred from ON to XP file structure.

That is by design. If you want to rename the XP file structure, then you
have to close the notebook on all computers, rename the folder via
Windows Explorer and then reopen it.
ON won't change the actual folder name, because that would render every
other copy of ON that uses the same notebook unable to find it.
