Thanks for your info, MadaboutDana.
I could not find a possibility to download a trial version. As far as I can see, OneNote is a part of the whole Office Suite which you would have to buy completely. (see e.g. here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/onenote/ )
And it seems that OneNote does not offer a possibility to export the database as a website.

This sounds good. :-)

Thanks for this useful hint. Indeed I did not discover this search possibility. On the whole, this is the way I would prefer the search! Of course an input box above the tree (as you also write) would make the search more convenient. That’s the way it is realized for example in Azzcardfile (plus some useful additonal search options).

But anyway I found a good intermediate solution:
You can transfer the command “All items” to the toolbar:
Right click on the toolbar—> Customize—-> Commands—-> Categorie “View”—-> Drag the command “All items” into the toolbar

By doing this you can open the window with the search field with one mouseclick.

>Unicode-Characters:
By testing the software just now a second time, I discovered one more issue, now concerning the tree both in the website version and in the program itself: The german Umlaute are not accepted in the titles of the items (in the tree): “Ä” becomes “A”, “Ü” becomes “U” etc. (But when searching by typing an Umlaut, the search is nevertheless successful.)
