Can i use a signature pad in infopath 2003?

[Patty]

I created a form for the bank using InfoPath 2003. I would like the new
accounts rep. to use the signature pad for the customers signature. The new
accounts representative is going to fill out the form and ask the customer to
sign the form using a signature pad and then submiting it to us. We or I
will be receiving it via e mail. But, Is it possible to use a singnature pad
on a InfoPath Form?

InfoPath does not have built-in support for signature pads, but if your
signature pad has an API with which you can programmatically 'drive' it and
return an image of the signature, you can write code to capture and save that
image in your InfoPath form.

Is there any way to capture the signer's signature on the form if you have a
Tablet PC?

I've never used InfoPath on a Tablet PC, so I wouldn't know; sorry.

FYI, I was looking at the controls in InfoPath and did a help on Ink
Pictures. From the description there it's exactly what I wanted know.

As always thanks for your responses!
