OneNote offline?

[Doug Hanhart]

Hi, is it possible to share a Notebook that's on my desktop (or a file server) so that I can use it on my laptop when I'm away from the office (offline) and have it sync when I rejoin the network?

Thanks

For sure!! ON works exactly as you want.

It's one of the unique features of ON that one stores the notebook files
on just one machine in a shared location (be it a desktop or a server).
The files are then opened from this shared device and ON works with it's
*cache*.
As long as the notebook is connected all changes are synched
automatically. If the notebook is disconnected one works as usual and
everything is saved in the cache.
As soon as the notebook is re-connected all changes are automatically
synched both ways.

I do not know any other software with comparable functionality. It
perfectly matches the requirements of notebook users.

Hi Doug,

Yes, that's one of the core strengths of OneNote 2007

The sync-ing in OneNote 2007 is quite sophisticated.
