Hi,
   I have an old application designed using Delphi 7. Now I want to
integrate tablet support in it.
What should I do?

thanks

I don't want to use a tablet PC.
I want to capture doctor's "handwriting" using a tablet like Wacom's and
store that handwriting in a MS SQL database.
I don't even want to use any recognition technology. What components and
controls should I use?

many thanks

Your tablet should come with appropriate libraries (and drivers, if 
required). I can imagine something like a TWAIN (scanner) interface, or 
whatever protocol the tablet OS/firmware/software provides for data 
exchange.

My PocketPC with WinCE has built-in support for handwriting recognition, 
which can be used by every PPC application. Then that application (.NET 
or C++) on such a device can communicate with your program in various ways.

DoDi

The applications stores medical data about the patients.
   I have a description field about the patient that must be filled by the
customer (doctor). I want to allow the doctor use handwritting for this
field instead of typing (She does not typing using keyboard).
I don't even need handwriting recognition at this phase. just want to know
how I can let the user use a tablet instead of typing.

Thanks

Hi!

Can you be more precise? What do you want to do with your application?
