I have just started to use OneNote and cannot figure out how or if OneNote
will convert handwriting to text on my PC. I use a Wacom tablet with the
latest driver installed but when I click on "Convert Handwriting to Text"
absolutely nothing happens.

I've checked everything I can think of but nothing seems to fix this
problem.

Hi--

I'm not preaching but it always helps for you to say what OS you're using
(for example Vista or XP, because sometimes there are specific downloads for
each OS and when asking about Office it always helps if you say what version
of Office and One Note (for example 2007). From what I just read, you can
use this on a Windows Vista box as well, and it seems to be the latest
version available from MSFT.

I'm not a tablet user, but I'll take a guess. You may need to download
this:

Here's a Win XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 Recognizer Pack

Also update your One Note to SP1 if its 2007 and your Office to SP1 if its
2007. There is also a new 9September 2008 One Note update with a new print
driver.




Chris Pratley has an excellent One Note Blog that you'll want to get to know
and the One Note Team has a blog as do many others so you can search for
them.

Here's Chris' article on Tab PC and One Note 2007 which may be of help:

Dan Escapa is on the MSFT One Note Team and this is his blog:

If you're using XP, update with SP2 and SP3 if you haven't already.

Good luck,
