Just click into the field, then write in the "graffit area" on the Tablet Screen, then press "send" and the text is put into the box. Very simple and nice.

Sorry mine is a Acer not a Toshiba. I will correct the initial post.

>Just ordered a Toshiba 3500 series and was hoping that the choice was correct. What means are you using to store the written text? (ie: if I have an app with a edit box and the user uses the tablet pen to write information, how is this copied to the edit box?)

>>The great thing about the Tablet PC is that it leverages existing technologies.
>>- Tablet PC OS is WinXP Pro will some extra handwriting software
>>- Stylus is transparent to your apps since it just moves the mouse cursor
>>- for handwriting input into your existing apps, the text is written into a section of the screen, then is pasted into the field. Once again completely transparent to your VFP app.

>>I have been running VFP7 and apps built on VFP7 on a TabletPC since November. I haven't had to change a single line of code. There are no issues.

>>I use the Toshiba TravelMate C100 which is a bit pricey, but it is nice since the screen can be swiveled so that it can be used as a conventional laptop. You can also get pure Tablets which have no keyboards attached.

>>If the size and weight are not an issue, it is a huge advantage over PocketPCs, since the code doesn't have to be rewritten.
