Glad to hear you finally got your tablet, maybe some day (if I'm a really good boy), I'll buy myself one.

I have to agree with Del. Even a small tablet is better than no tablet. I love my tablet so much that I've begun taking it to work with me. I read an article just yesterday that convinced me that I was doing an exceptionally good thing. It appears that recent research is showing that even ergonomic mice and trackballs are causing long term damage and there is a growing push to move to pen based input devices. This made the Tablet PC makers very happy.I've found that my productivity has gone up a bit since using it at work and the text recognition within M$ Word means that I'm able to scribble down notes and documents and have it all converted to text for me. Now I just worry about writer's cramp. LOL

Word has text recognition? .... I gotta check that out .... I got msoffice 07... weeeeee
See... ergonomically correct to have a tablet... you all now have an excuse to buy one... it's almost like a doctor's order...
Yup. It had text recognition starting in Office XP I believe. Works pretty good too. I had both my kids scribble some stuff as well as myself and it recognized everyone's writings with only 1 error for all three sentences.

all I can find is OneNote ... allows you to translate handwriting to text .... couldn't find anything in MS word itself... that I'm aware of ...
Just make sure the language bar is on, and set correctly. Word will do it automatically. There isn't anything to turn on.

Hey Del, did you get the handwriting recognition working yet? I thought about it last night trying to think of reasons why it wouldn't work for you and I remembered that Office SP3 broke the handwriting recognition. I have the fix if you think that might be the problem. Otherwise let me know and I can walk you through getting it working.
On a side note, I've been using my tablet at work as I mentioned and I have Vista. If you have Vista and connect a Wacom tablet it opens a whole new way of interacting with the PC. If anyone is interested, I can tell you about it, or better yet you can just give it a try and learn about it yourself.
