OneNote Trial

I'm currently using OneNote in the Trial Download version. I want to purchase
the actual program from an online source, which will send me the disc. Will I
have any trouble using the info I have created in the Trial version when I
switch to the permanently installed version?

Certainly not.
But if you are using the 2007 trial and buy the 2010 version you will
have to convert your notebook(s). Standard procedure.

Just one (nitpicking) addition to what Bernd said: You *can* convert
the Notebooks created in ON 2007 to the new format in ON 2010, but you
*don't have to* do so. So, for example, if you want to keep your
Notebooks compatible with others who will use ON 2007, then you would
not want to convert to the 2010 file format.

If you use the 2010 file format, then you have the advantage of new
features in ON 2010. I am not sure what these are, but maybe others
know and will respond. (I believe, but am not sure, that the new Linked
Notes feature in 2010 is available only if you have the 2010 file format.)

As Bernd says in his post, the conversion to the 2010 file format is
easy, if you choose to go that route.

Not necessarily so.

Notebooks in the 2007 firmat are usable just as they are;-)
Yes, some of the new features are missing. But ibe can leave the
existing notebooks untouched.

New features that require the 2010 format include Linked Notetaking and the
ability to have multiple levels of subpage (not just one)
