Hi I appreciate you taking the time to write this - sorry its taken me ages to reply - only just got MLO on my work PC yesterday (they are very tight on what they allow you to install here!!)
I tried your 2 sets of steps. Comments below: So, Yes you can link to any place in OneNote from MLO. 1 - 7 all fine 8. Now the Magic. Simply go to the first part of the link and insert file: -- that's all! Now the paste becomes a link! 9. Now from MLO, just click the link and OneNote goes to the specified place. OneNote will start up if it's not already going. I didn't need to do step 8 - it automatically made it a link. However it opens up Onenote Online, not the onenote desktop app. On going from OneNote to MLO 1. -7. All fine 7. Test the new link. (a warning box comes up - click OK) This didn't work. Tells me that its either readonly or someone else is using!? I love onenote - am quite new to it, but finding it so useful. I want to manage notes and reference material in OneNote but have all taks in MLO. I want to keep as little in outlook as possible. If its useful material it should go in Onenote, if its something actionable it should go in MLO. Outlook has "send to Onenote", which is fab. Shame there's no "send to MLO"!! I have read David Allens GTD quite a while ago and I do try to adopt his principles. I fin MLO is great for that.
