"The one thing I teach in my IT classes is that you cannot know everything, but if you can find the answers you can look like you do."
+1,000,000 - I live by very similar words. Granted, textbook engineering can be dangerous and is no substitute for hands on experience, but you have to start somewhere. <Interstitial> My father is an engineer in the classical sense of the word (electrical and mechanical). When we moved many years ago, he had the moving truck stop by his new office to unload his library before going to our new house (this was, ahem, before the internet and books on CD). Also bear in mind that he is a practical engineer, very hands on....not the theoretical laboratory type, though he is capable in that regard as well. When the moving guys started unloading hand-truck loads of books, my father's new (also an engineer) boss' mouth hit the floor. My father simply said, "Mack, you don't have to know everything to be a good engineer, you just have to know where to look." There were a number of very good engineers in that department. When the company downsized about 8 years later, the only two people that they kept on were Mack and my father. </Interstitial> Jonathan A+, MCSA, MCSE Thumb-typed from my HTC Droid Incredible (and yes, it really is) on the Verizon network.

IT will have working copies of most Microsoft software. The cost is $250 for the plus (I think). You will truly benefit by having it. That way if you want to **test** OneNote, you can. Also how does your company purchase it's Office licenses? YOU don't have to share that info, but you could update that to include OneNote. Another option would be to install a PDF writer on your system (there are free ones). Write out you notes with Word, WordPad or notepad then print to the PDF. Not as slick as OneNote, but it does the same thing. I'll often send solutions that I see here to my notebook for later review.
