Hey Jenny, Read the help file. We worked real hard on that. Seriously, the delay you're seeing is most likely due to the remote OCR. That is to say, the imgae being uploaded to "the cloud" (I really hate that term) for OCR. So you have to have an active Internet connection for it to work. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: (814) 860-3194 or 888-75-BUDDY
