MS Access Forms

Can you populate MS Access forms using the pen/stylus on the tablet PC?

Yes, using either the TIP or Write Anywhere, converting to text.

Chris, aren't there some ink enabled objects you can use in Access now. I
think I have read about them but I don't remember where.

Peter, perhaps you should ask in an Access group. They are going to know
a lot more about this in there.

Grant,

Downloading the Tablet SDK will enable you to use both the InkEdit and
InkPicture controls on Access Forms.

After installation just add to the ToolBox. There have been some VBA
scripts posted in the past. Google ms.pub.windows.tabletpc.developer.

Hope this helps.

Fritz
