OneNote 2007 to 2010 Problems

J

I am finding the upgrade of OneNote more troublesome than the previous 2003
to 2007 upgrade. In ON 2007, all my notebooks were subfolders in the OneNote
Notebooks folder.
I'm not sure if its because I've been working with ON since the Technical
Preview, but ON is seeing all my previous notebooks as sections in one big
notebook named OneNote Notebooks. Since I have dozens of what should be
separate notebooks, this is not good.
Do I have to go and create a new notebook for each section, then copy the
current sections (which should be notebooks) into them?

It wouldn't have converted them to sections (.one files). If you go to File
| Open | Open Notebook, navigate to your OneNote Notebooks folder you should
see your notebooks, as folders, in that folder. If you open one of those
folders you should see a OneNote file called "Open Notebook" that you can
open. (NOTE: I'm doing this on the RTM version, the earlier versions may not
be quite as intuitive)
