Hi.

I've had this graphics tablet for some time, its a Trust TB-2100, I want to be able to just write in Word using the tabley, but I dont see anything in word that enabled me to do this.

Any software for what I want to do?

Thanks
Willz.

Indeed, it is slightly harder. As is using a headset to talk and let the PC type it out as you say it, takes ages for the thing to work properly.

I don't know the name of the software my sister used to use, I'll ask her later if you still need it.

I would guess that you need the Office extensions for use on Tablet PCs, (Googling for "office tablet" without quotes returns hits at MS for Office XP and Office 2003). I would have thought that this woul allow you to do what you want.

Why bother then?

If it's easier for you to type, why bother trying to handwrite onto the PC?

i used to have a graphics tablet and it worked as a normal mouse apaert from it being in pen form so im sure if you unplug your mouse and just use the tablet......see where im going with this?

try using paint for the signature then adding the picture to your word document
