Send to ON as link

[William Stacey [C# MVP]]

When in Excel or Word, shouldn't there be a Send to OneNote as link/file?
Is that already there and I just not find it in Office 2007 menus?

If you do want to embed the file in your notebook, then do it the other way.
Open Windows Explorer and navigate to where your Excel/Word file is. Now go
to OneNote. Navigate to the notebook where you want the link. Select the
file from Explorer and drag it to your OneNote page. You should get asked
whether you want to add the file or a link.

yes. Sometimes you just want the link to the real xls file and not a
printout. You can do this manually with Insert from ON, but when your in
Excel - it would make it easy to have a button then I don't need to find the
file from within ON.

Okay, with the caveat that it could not work until the file is actually
saved (as in the case of a new spreadsheet). Obviously otherwise it
would not know the path for the link.

Right. I suppose a dialog box would pop at that point. Maybe giving you
the option to OLE embed the spread and/or current selection. That brings up
another issue of onenote not supporting OLE AFAICT (it converts to a html
table).
