Thank you Rob. By the time you and Bob had answered, I had actually found
the Microsoft Office Document Imaging application on my computer. I am
trying to help someone else with this dilemma and have actually told her of
this application. Do you know of a software program where you can view and
change information that is imported from scanned documents to various
programs such as Excel, Word PowerPoint and FrontPage. When searching on the
Microsoft website I came across a program called TruePage. Have either of
you ever heard of it or used it?

Once you get the image of the text scanned by the OCR program into
"real" text, then you should read it carefully. OCR programs are good,
but are never perfect. Edit the text in Word.

To get the data into Excel and Front Page, from Word, is then just as
you would normally do. (copy, paste, re-input, whatever ...) This is a
hard question to answer without knowing your need, format of the data
from where it comes and where it goes, etc. Suggest you seek help from a
collegue or someone who can work through this with you.

Hi Sue,

Truepage is part of the Omnipro feature set from
Scansoft. It's more capable than the MS Office Paper
(Office Document Imaging) application.
