Making OneNote Document Read-Only

  • 5

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a OneNote question here but I thought I’d try to it anyway…just pick y’all’s brains some!

Has anyone worked with OneNotes? A manager came to me with a question about leaving his notes open so other managers can edit them but their analysts can only read them.

I’ve been researching and have found information about password protection but when I tried that, it actually hid everything. I don’t see a read-only option but I thought someone might have an idea.

Anyone?

  1. I do not use OneNote, but there is a command line switch:

    /openro “filename”

    Opens a file as read-only, where filename is a fully qualified file name, including the disk and folder path and .one file name extension.

    See the OneNote Help section on Command Line Switches for more info.
