Question Subject: Copy link between folder does not work 6/16/2007 11:56 PM PST By: Antonio In: microsoft.public.onenote I collect article in pdf, word file, picture and notes. I used to store pdf file inside OneNote and work on them. Then, since the same file has to appear in different projects, I was doing copy paste with the link and all was working fine having the same link in different pages or sections. Recently, I decided to split the organization of my sections in to different folders. And ... here is the problem. The link that are copied from one folder to another doesn't work anymore. When I click on them I realized that the link has automatically changed to the folder in which I copied it, but obviously the file is always at the same place. It will not be a good solution to duplicate the file, since I underline and take notes also directly on the pdf. I think this can be a bug, I do not see the logic behind changing automatically the path of the link when I copy/paste the link from one folder to another.
My version is OneNote 2003, the problem happen on Vista and XP

This is because how linked files worked in ON2003. It would isnert the file in the same directory as the .one file and also place a hyperlink on the page. It was quite fragile and when you moved a page to another section this might have broke your linking.
This is all much better in OneNote 2007 and I recommend upgrading.

I will try ON2007 and I will let you know. However, the problem was that ON2003 change automatically the hyperlink contained in the section when you move the section to another folder. The link is broken since there is a automatic modification of the link thatmake no sense. It would be useful to correct the problem in ON2003. Kind regards Antonio

I tried ON2007. Here I can insert a document in a page, then copy/paste to another folder and open again the document. It works fine. However, the problem still remain for the documents that were inserted in ON2003. Even if now I converted the Notebook to ON2007. I believe it will be nice to fix the problem in ON2003 since the shift to ON2007 is not evident for a complex notebook. Mainly for the linking system.
