Monica, if all it takes is a familiarity with the software I will be using, I have that covered. At this point I will be using OmniPage, the latest version.. Boy, does the scanner have buttons...besides its on/off switch, it has 3 really BIG buttons; 2medium buttons and 2 smallish buttons. I thought there would be a need to know how to operate those buttons. Smile. Any help is appreciated.
