Using Office 2003 with pen

Hi Everybody !

My writting (with tablet pc pen) is not inserted in Word 2003. But
works in notepad.
I have installed Office SP3, Office 2003 Tablet PC Update: Improved
Ink Recognition

But failed to operate.

Please help me out of this.

Thanks.


UDAY...

What does "it failed to operate" mean. Are you saying the download didn't
install properly or that the functionality isn't there? Please be specific
with your information.

Office 2003 doesn't really need anything to work with a tablet. The improved
recognition download that you got just applies some context sensitivity to
certain text fields for using the TIP more accurately. But Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint (as well as some other apps like Visio) have built in support for
using the pen.

What exactly isn't working?

I have just recieved a new batch of 4 tablet PC's by Gateway in at my
business, we have about 12-15 already, on this new batch, when we open the
Tablet input panel while in word 2003 or 2007, we handwrite in what we want,
click on the convert button which shows the hand writting converted into
regular text, than we click the "input" button and the text should be passed
into Word 2003, but it is not, nothing happens when we click the "insert"
button. This works on all of our other tablet PC's but this new batch of 4
it does not work? any ideas?

Hm, it sounds like Text Services Framework (TSF) is malfunctioning. That
would likely affect speech recognition as well.

Windows XP I assume? I don't have a XP machine handy but there is a setting
in regional and language options somewhere that has a checkbox for "Extend
support of advanced text service to all programs" Is this checked? If not,
try checking it. I'm just grabbing at straws though.

Open the Control Panel
Open the Add/Remove Programs and check the box that says "show updates".
-after the list has populated-
Find HotFix KB911071 and delete it.

Brother Yo beat me to it.... I had the same problem... This is a Gateway
fix, and several people have said it only applies to Gateways, but they use
the same combination of hardware/drivers as others...

Andy Shannon: Definitely do this... I know this fixes exactly the problem
you're having...
