I had an idea that, if a feature of a mouse
was the ability to scan a number and/or a
word, which are needed to fill in info. boxes
on a computer screen; then with a click, the
box would be filled in. Is that too far out ?
There would have to be a see-through
window, or target, on the mouse
to position
it properly before scanning & clicking. I'm
talking about the required data being
somewhere else than on the screen, like on
an invoice or other paper document. Ron.
turn your optical mouse into a crappy scanner

Surely you know the spelling of the first
word. |
|

the first word? the *very* first word? ever? in the history of man? i'm not even sure what that was, but i do know how to spell surely, i merely chose an alternate. it is one of those overused HB ploys. dates back there to viola and custard. |
