Hi everyone, I just re-installed Win XP and OneNote 2007 on my tablet. I
have not installed Windows Desktop Search yet. I noticed that the ON search
function seems to work. I am trying to minimize the programs I have
installed (to maximixe PC performance). What functionality in OneNote 2007
will I lose if I don't install WDS?
--
Thanks
Dave

Nothing, as far as I know. I don't have it installed and I can search to my
heart's content...

When I installed Office 2007 Professional, Windows Desktop Search was ID as
need to support expanded Outlook 2007 features. Applicable only to Windows
XP not Vista. Installing adds a "Vista" like search. If you do not install,
you will likely get a prompt to install each time you open Outlook 2007.

In Outlook 2007, go to Help and search for Windows Desktop Search for more
information and direction on how to turn off the prompt.

There is one case where OneNote requires Windows Desktop Search:

OneNote did not come with a Search and Replace feature. There is a
PowerToy that you can install to add this feature to your OneNote
installation.

That PowerToy requires the presence of Windows Desktop Search to work.

Thank you, I was not aware of the Power Toy.
