Document Imaging Auto Name

Mark Kelley

Using Office professional 2003 document scanning and imaging, there is an
auto name option in the output options of the scanning presets. I am scanning
a particular form, delivery tickets. I want the scanned document to
automatically be saved using the delivery ticket number.
I have the number at the upper left hand corner of the delivery ticket. The
date is located on the 3rd line of text down on the page, and it is being
saved with part of the date each time for some reason. If i output the OCR
text to word, everything shows up. the delivery ticket number is the first
thing at the top of the page on a line all by itself.
My question is, is there any way i can "tell" it to look at the place where
the delivery ticket number is for the auto name? Is there any other solution
that i am overlooking?

I scanned the same document 5 times in a row. With the auto name option
selected, it saved the file as 3 differant names in those 5 scans. Not once
did it save the file with the First word on the page. Seams almost random. I
guess it doesnt really matter that much as long as the name of each file is
unique, the directory can be searched by the delivery ticket number contained
inside the file.
