OneNote Structure Layout My Notebook    Everything in

OneNote is within My Notebook. Both folders and sections are stored here.

Folders    These are an organizational aid. You don't have to use folders — they're optional — but they're useful if you do. Each folder can hold many sections.

Sections    Sections are another organizational aid, but they're not optional. Sections are used to keep pages of a similar type grouped together.

Pages    This is where you actually put your notes. You can write, type, or draw on a page just as you do on paper. It's easy to add pages to a section by clicking the New Page tab.

Pages in OneNote

When you open OneNote, you're straight into a notebook page where you can take notes. Think of it as turning the cover on a paper pad.

Unlike a paper notebook, the page in OneNote autosizes and keeps on growing as information is added. So you won't have to squeeze tiny notes in the margin as you would on paper

OneNote Tabs

  1.Tabs down the side are for pages.

  2.Shorter tabs down the side are for subpages, grouped under a page tab.

  3.Some tabs across the top are for sections. A section tab shares color with the tabs of the pages in that section.

 4. Other tabs across the top are for folders, and those tabs have a folder icon.

  5.Click the arrow next to the active folder's name to see the folder and section list.

similar to that in window except that windows explore can only view the folders note the sections in a folder like one note
