Using the Input Panel
Use the input panel to enter information in any program on your Pocket PC. You can
type using the soft keyboard or you can write using Character Recognizer. In either
case, the characters appear as typed text on the screen.
To show or hide the input panel
1. Tap the
Input Panel
button.
2. Tap the arrow next to the
Input
Panel
button to see your choices.
When you use the input panel, your Pocket PC anticipates the word you are typing or
writing and displays it above the input panel. When you tap the displayed word, it is
inserted into your text at the insertion point. The more you use your Pocket PC, the
more words it learns to anticipate.
