For my money a tool to permanantly sort by alphabetical, numerical or date
order would be great. If it came with the option to temporaraly sort lists
and tables then so much the better.
Idealy it would sort by selected column or items.
The sooner, the better as this is a serious short comming in the OneNote
product.
Another tool that would be really useful would be the ability to make
permanant links between multiple items eg tasks and names.
Many thanks

I find it also very irritating that a template can`t be applied to a
existing page.
In Word the formats (not sure what it`s called in the EN version) change the
whole document, including text.
Why would it be tough to implement that into OneNote, since it only changes
the page background (asfaik).
