Resolved the issue by (combined):
- closing all workbooks
- moving all documents from the "Unfiled Notes" into a new folder
- closing OneNote
- reopening OneNote
- Adding the workbooks
— now it is working :)

Same Problem and it runs much longer than 5min.
After adding a Tag (here Ctrl-1) (this started yesterday, 1-Sept-2010!), I have to wait much more than 5 min to watch a progress bar stuck in the last 2% of completion.
Cancel needs two cancellations then the progressbar reappears with the next Todo task (CTRL-1).
Program is basically unusable now.

System:
Windows 7 / Office 2007 with actual patches
OneNote File Version: 12.0.6500.5000
no suspicious network. memory or harddisk activity seen
No comment on the progress bar, no information about what is going on…

I see the same problem (running XP) – only after hitting CTRL+1.
Worked last week.. have no clue what caused this.
It's really annoying – hope someone has a solution (other than wasting 5 minutes a dosen times a day)

I remember one of the sale arguments: "Office 2007 – increases your productivity" – well… :-)
