Thread: Moving multiple sections from one notebook to another

Geek News

Moving multiple sections from one notebook to another
"John Waller" <johnw[ at ]REMOVETHISpinnacleweb.com.au> 2/17/2007 7:07:58 PM
OneNote 2007.

Is there a more efficient way of moving multiple sections from one notebook
to another rather than dragging and dropping one section tab at a time?

Shift+clicking and Ctrl+clicking on multiple section tabs in a notebook does
not select multiple section tabs so they can be moved in a single operation.

Just go into the notebook folder using Windows Explorer and move the .ONE
files. OneNote will automatically update itself. You can even do it while
OneNote is still running but I usually play it safe and exit OneNote
first. Naturally, this won't work for pages because they aren't
individual files like sections are.

Thanks Grant.

I was hoping for a method using the OneNote UI because non-tech-savvy users
are wanting to do this.

But I guess this workaround is manageable with a bit of training.
