text recognition difference b/w commercial and non-commercial?

[MarkC]

I have OneNotes 2007 installed at work on Windows 7 and text recognition
works. I have it installed at home (non-commercial) on Windows 7 and I do
not get text recognition. Both are SP2. But they look different. Does text
recognition not work in the non-commercial version? This is the only thing
that make OneNote worthwhile as a tool for me.

There are no different versions of OneNote.

Check the setting for text recognition in "Tools | Options | Other".

No, the text recognition features are the same in both versions.

What isn't recognizing? Ink or text in images or ?

In my home version, it does not recognize my handwriting with a pen.
It gives me a "convert handwriting to text" option but does not do anything.
The interface also seems different from work. At work, I simply place my
mouse over the word and right click and I get word options. I can also
simply search the document and get matches for handwritten words. My version
at home does none of this. It has a specific menu pick to do the conversion.
It is almost like the Onenote versions are different, but they both identify
themselves as Onenote 2007 SP2. I'm perplexed.
