Handy Word and OneNote Trick

This is a little trick I found today that's helpful if you're using MS Office 2007 and work on more than one computer (desktop and laptop for example). What you do is start with a shared notebook in OneNote which you can access from both computers. Then go into OneNote's Insert menu and insert the manuscript. This creates a copy of your original manuscript inside the notebook.

Now all you do is open your manuscript from inside OneNote rather than through Word. Just double-click on it and it will open the document inside Word. The nice thing is that it synchronizes your changes between the two computers automatically for you. You can write at home on the desktop, or go out with the laptop and not have to worry about manually synchronizing your files.
