Left hand scroll bar on your programs for Leftie tablet PC users

[Blair]

Using the latest version. Own a tablet PC. I am left handed and I currently
have to reach across my screen and block the view in order to use the pen to
scroll down my screen (In any of your programs). This is inconvenient for me
and makes it difficult for me to easily see where I am scrolling down to in
my document.

Also, I thoght you were pushing the use of tablet PC's. This shoudl be a no
brainer to not exlude 10% of the computer users. So what is the deal?

Hi Blair,

In Word, for example, you can use Tools=>Options=>View and choose the
[x] Left scroll bar
option to set an individual program.

For Tablet PC questions for all of Windows you may want to post this
in the Tablet PC group (link below)
