If your notebook is shared with others, or even if it's not, is there
any way to make a note or a page read-only or to revert to or review a
previous revision of the page. Is there any way to tell if
something's been changed on a page and who changed it? e.g. in MS
WORD, if you have track changes on, you can see if something was
changed and with a collaborative tool like twiki you can revert to
previous revisions.
If your notebook has valuable information in it, it is desirable to
know when something's been changed and also to get back to previous
revisions of a page. Does onenote provide anything for this at all?
Thanks

Right-clicking on an object in ON shows who last changed it and when.
Check it out.

Ok, thanks, but that's no help with finding changes because you have
to right click on every individual sentence to see when/ who/ if/ it
was changed. Since OneNote obviously stores the information
internally (date/ time and who), it ought to have an option to
highlight or search for text/ sentences that were changed since a
particular time date, and it should also have an option to open up the
corresponding page from a backup in a side by side window - I know
you can do this manually, but it's slow.

Yes it's anything but comfortable.

Oh, sorry, I forgot this in the list of my recommendation. The tool is
really most useful.
As I my have your ear (as you replied to *me* instead of the OP ):
A long while I ago when I had just installed TOC for the first time, we
had a discussion on how to get an *icon* into the IconBar instead of the
big Text used.
You were most helpful to me and showed me a way how to do that with a
registry hack.
Meanwhile I have changed systems and OS and so I lost my custom icon
:-( :-(

No. *Pages cannot be made read-only.
One can secure *SECTIONS* with a password, but not pages.

Sorry, I do not understand this :-(

I share your praises.
For me ON is a fantastic piece of software. And the synching feature is
unique.
