This happens most of the time but not all the time. When I open Microsoft
Windows Journal, it comes up right away but I have to wait 10 or 15 seconds
until the hour glass disappears and I can write. This didn't use to happen
and occassionally it still doesn't. Most of the time it does. Please advise.

Dennis, did this just suddenly happen, or did you perhaps install something
recently? Are you running a version of Office on your Tablet PC?

This has been happening for awhile now (4 months or so). Not sure what was installed that could have caused it. I'm running SP2 and I do have Office XP installed. Due to network connections at work, Outlook is 2003.

Oh, okay, so you're running a mixture of Office XP (2002) and Office 2003
programs? Have you updated Office XP with the Office XP Pack for Tablet PC
available here;
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=33790048-269b-4838-ab9e-74b64626a494 ?

If you have these combinations going you may have the problem described in
the "Restore Full Functionality to Journal with Office 2003" section (third
item) on my Tips and Tricks page:

See if that will help you.
