I had NOT used OneNote since the beta until this week. I just tried to make
a new note and cannot open a new page. Old Office Beta HAD to be installed
to install new one (so please don't ask if the old beta is still on line)

I am trying to create a new note in a given notebook. NO NEW notes can be
created. I can read each and every existing note. I can see the other
notebook (the one from the install extolling the virtues of OneNote 2007;
it's the same notebook in a different file as the one from the beta).
I want to create a note in ANY of my given tabs to no avail.
