After TR2 didn't open my existing notes
P Cause 16.09.2006 14:27:01
I installed TR2 and launched OneNote. Much to my surprise my existing
notebooks were not opened. The new version assumed that they were located in
the default location and mine weren't. Looks like the upgrade didn't pick up
the settings from the old install. Once I did an open and selected the
directory where my notebooks were stored, all appears well. Also chnegd the
default location to be there as well.

That shouldn't have happened...
Where did you have your notebooks? What was the default location?

Went there but unfortunately, the "Apply" link isn't active.

P Cause -

What are the _exact_ steps you followed for upgrading?

Did you do anything with the registry after installing B2TR?

Has anyone else seen this?

Not so on my side.
Worked really fine.
I really wondered how neat my settings were carried over.

Hi P,

OneNote 2007 will not try to split apart your notebook structure if your
legacy notes were not in the default location My Docs\My Notebook\. However,
we should have opened c:\stuff\notes directory as a notebook (along with the
guide notebook) and prompted you after boot to upgrade all of the files
within this notebook.

As Patrick suggested, you should definitely log a bug on the Connect site.
In addition, do be sure to attach the OneNote_MigrationLog.txt file from your
temp directory.

Also, just to confirm -- was this your first instance using OneNote 2007, or
had you previously been running B1 or B2?

I applied TR2 and opened OneNote 2007 from the Start menu. Didn't tweak
registry or do anything else at all. I had used OL 2007 and some other apps
after the TR2007 install before I used OneNote.

I upgraded to the OneNote 2007 beta as soon as it was available and had been
using it since. I actually had been using it within an hour prior to my
upgrade to TR2
