Hi BillBennett

So far as I know after searching, it's not possible to search for unticked tags in OneNote UWP. When I search for the to do tag, it will sort it out by unticked/ticked, but you can't search for that only.

There are a few requests for this on the OneNote feedback hub - the more upvotes they get the more likely the developers will be pushed into implementing this sooner.

Thanks,

Mark

Thanks for your very kind response, Mark! I am still interested in development in this area but have little hope it will be anytime soon. I don't see To Do and OneNote getting together soon so I try to use other tools to compensate. For example, making notes in To Do note field instead of OneNote has reduced my use of OneNote considerably.

Thanks again!

Michael
