Default How do I save a scanned document to Word? Only camera options are.

I scanned a document and it ended up in notepad with one to three words on
each line. How do I convert this document to Word?

Notepad will save the file as a text file, Word can read text files. In
fact Notepad likely is reading a text file saved by your OCR program and all
you need to is to open it with Word. You may be able to make Word you
default editor for OCR. All the details are not related to Access.

Sorry. This is a newsgroup dedicated to questions about Access, the
database program in Office Professional. It appears your question may not
be related to these subjects. The Microsoft help system is not all that
clear and may have misdirected you here.

It is best to ask your questions in a newsgroup dedicated to the
subject of your question. You should find people better able to address
your problem there.

Note: It is always best to indicate the name and version of any
program(s) you may be using when asking a question and also indicate the
operating system (like Windows XP or 98) when you ask a question.

Select your preferred language, then select Office, scroll down to
Word, and pick an appropriate Word newsgroup.
