Sort Pages balks at 2010 notebooks

[Steve Silverwood]

It appears that the Sort Pages powertoy balks at sorting OneNote 2010
notebook data. It crashes with an error message, but it's
intermittent. If there are a large number of pages to be sorted, and
the folder is of 2010 format, there's an error and nothing gets
sorted, but if I convert that notebook back down to 2007 format, the
sort works fine.

John, any ideas if there is a fix to this?

All the 2007 powertoys will need to be updated for the new 2010 format.
Since we are still working on 2010, no one has updated any yet.

I can't remember if Dan gave out the code to this one. If so, you can
update the namespace to 2010 and use the OneNote 14.0 interface to rebuild it
yourself. Probably easier to wait until we are done, though.

I haven't done any real coding since my dBASE and Clipper days, so I
know when I'm out of my league. I'll wait patiently for the update,
and thanks!
