Error in conveying Chris Prattley's Recomendation--The Workaround to the Prematurely Stopped Indexing Problem srd <srd152000[ at ]yahoo.com> 15.07.2006 22:12:07 I misconstrued Chris Prattley's advice re what to do when indexing halts and search is unavailable. His advice was NOT, as I said, to fiddle with file types in the Indexing Options control panel. Well, it was late at night--His actual advice was to fiddle with OneNote PAGES. And it works, after I stopped taking what I thought was Chris Prattley's advice and did what he actually said. The cause of this issue seems to be OneNote sometimes failing to mark pages as "not Indexed." OneNote may think it is finished indexing when it hasn't. Making changes to pages apparently brings it to OneNote's attention. So the advice is to make changes to numerous pages. How numerous? I can't tell you. I would estimate I hit about 15% of my pages. Very impressionistic estimate, though. To atone for the earlier error in reportage, here's a hint I know of independently of Chris Prattley that helps. To make changes to a page, all you need to do is hit space and backspace. You have changed nothing, but the application will think it needs to save, which I think must be the same mechanism as underlies the marking process. This is confirmed to the extent of my success using this method of changing pages in getting the indexing to work and get Search consequently to return results and note flags. -- Stephen R. Diamond
