Perhaps watching the OneNote video could help you with the concepts. It is
very, very good and will perhaps open your view to how OneNote operates and
the program's great capabilities:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011423061033.aspx What is it
you're attempting to do with the two? I don't recall any claim that OneNote
and OBM were integrated at all, or designed as such. There seems to be a
misconception that because some programs are under the "Office" banner,
they're designed for integration with each other. That is incorrect.

So w.o.e. is the point of selling them under the same branding ? The
same applies to the preposterous MS Publisher that doesn't even have a
common file format with Word ! Really silly IMO...
