Thank you for the response, I am sure I will have some more questions next week!

>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?)
>>
>>
>>>>Interested to know if anyone has opinions on Tablet PC's. What recommendations you have, comparisons, POS functionality. Any issues with VFP.
>>>
>>>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.
