File Inserting Teacher Weeks 5/18/2007 2:51:01 PM In ON2003, I use to be able to drag-drop a file into my notebook and Onenote would copy the file into my notebook and place a readable link into my notebook. As a teacher I find the expectionally useful to organize my lesson/unit plans. Is there anyways that this can be done in ON2007, either with directly or with a 3rd party application. So far this is my only complaint about the new version.

Re: File Inserting "Patrick Schmid [MVP]" <pdschmid[ at ]nospam.mvps.org> 5/18/2007 3:24:20 PM OneNote 2007 lets you do three different things: - Add a link to a file on a page - Embed the actual file (meaning the file is stored as part of the notebook and e.g. synched by OneNote if you use multiple computers) - Insert a file as printout. That means it gets printed to ON and you can take notes on the printout Select a file in Windows Explorer and say copy. Then go into ON and the page where you want it to be and use Paste. You'll get a dialog with those three options.

Re: File Inserting "twesslen[ at ]gmail.com" <twesslen[ at ]gmail.com> 5/19/2007 5:25:34 PM Can a 4th feature be added that allows the link to be relative to the current notebook section as in the previous version of onenote? Although I understand the rationale behind placing a fully qualified link in, I would appreciate the option to put a relative link in as in the previous version. I absolutely hate having to delete most of the link after I paste it. What was wrong with the old method "copy to onenote folder and place a link". This worked perfect for me before, now to achieve the same result it takes me much much longer than drag & drop. I have to copy file by hand to my folder, drag file to onenote, and modify the fully qualified link. I do not wish to embed files in my notebook and hide them from windows explorer. I sometimes access contents of my notebook in this manner. This was something about the previous version that i liked a lot and I wish it was back in onenote 2007. I use onenote to make lists of files I need to review for my study time. I make links to files and place checkboxes next to them, checking them off after I review them. Having the full link is overkill and a lot of clutter on my notebook. Please please add back the option to copy to folder and put only a relative link in. This is a must for me if I continue to use onenote and/or recommend it. Thanks.
