Office OneNote 2003 [Resolved]

How can I get the minimized OneNote application to be there in the system tray when I start up the computer? I'd like it so that I can have my notes in there at all times.

I'm sure people out there use OneNote.

Or is there a better note-taking software out there? Something that hangs around in the system tray and if I double click it, it pops up with my already-typed-in notes?

I could write you one for free if you want? I've been looking for a small project for ages now. Coder's block, you know how it is.

[dis1411]

throw it in your startup folder?

I don't know if it's better, but you could try Nullsoft's SafeSex.

One of the best available is the Post-It Notes

Did you manage to find how to send OneNote to SystemTray? I can get it to show in systray but when i minimizie it still remains on the Task Bar, then whats the point of adding it to systray

I guess i spoke too early, just managed to fix it and now it goes to systray when minimized properly

Now i will add it to registry to see if i can get it to start up at restart

Pathetic.

Yes, I did manage to get it into the system tray, but whenever I'd open the side note, it would open a new side note. I'd then click the Delete button to look at my original note.

So I tried out something called "Turbo Note". What I liked about it was, it can stay on top as a small bar, you write your notes in there, and it rolls up when it loses focus. Easy, handy reference.

OneNote was simply too cumbersome.

I'll try the other two links given here.

Give Microsoft a break, it's the first version of it and it works very well. The benifits of it truly standout on laptops and tablet pcs... or more-so tablet pcs.

I'd agree with the more-so tablet pcs part. I'm using a laptop.

They are doing a lot of extra stuff for it with SP1 for Office 2003, so it might help you in that department.

Aah, I look forward to it.

Thanks.

I'll add [Resolved] now.

LOL, righto.
