Hello Guys,
When we are talking about entering information based on a goal of  100% accuracy, I just don't think scanning is a good solution.  I'm afraid renting or borrowing a set of working eyeballs is the one and only fix I'm aware of at the moment.  I'd love to hear if anyone has more tips to help though.
Best,
JB

I have seen in my research programs that use ICR(intelligent  character recognition) or IWR(Intelligent WOrd Recognition), but so far I have not located one of those programs .

>>>    I hope to find you well. I am writing you in the hopes for some creative ideas! I have taken a job at Vanderbilt University in the Student Employment Office. One of the tasks I will perform is  data entry. Some data entry duties would include verifying and entering information  filled out by hand.;forms could include time sheets or applications. One idea that a friend provided was to have a reader read me the information all at once initially; then, I could replay the audio and enter in the details as I listen to the recording. Does anyone else have any other ideas, approaches, or possible technology that could assist me with such tasks? Your insight would be greatly appreciated! Feel free to contact me at secretary at nfb-tn.org <mailto:secretary at nfb-tn.org> or at 901-483-1515.
