The way I could imagine is as follows:

1) scan the list in
2) use a text recognising software to transfer the pixel data into ASCII text
3) use your favorite program to bring it into a form you like
        word -> RTF -> NewtWorks import
        Excel -> spreadsheet -> Quickfigure
        Outlook -> sync with Lookout to your names file

HTH

Beloved Braintrust !

maybe just a short URL would be enough...

please,
what?s your preferred and recommended way
to get a paper based telephone list into
the green.

Scanner is here.

No need to get this list into the Names-file....
but would be fine !

In a book, as i understand, there is no easy way
to change the text..., right ?

Background:
just started a new job in another hospital.
And right at the beginning they throw all kind
of information at me...all on white paper....

Could Hypernewt take this data ?

Thanks for reading so far !
and for *any* ideas !

Stefan
