Default Scanning into Word 2007

No. I'm referring to the import item on the File menu in Word.

I think you are referring to Microsoft Document Imaging? I understand that
this (as in previous versions) is not installed by default..

I think there's a misunderstanding here. In older versions of Word
there was an option to import TEXT from a scanner. That seems to have
vanished completely. All the replies seem to expect me to scan in my
text separately to some other program and then copy-and-paste into
Word - this is impossibly time consuming. There must be a better way.

I was able in word 2003 to scan directly into it from my scanner.
Now the scanner software does not list word as an option because it
is 2007. My scanner is an hp 6310 all-in-one. Is there anything I
can do from the word side or am I at the mercy of HP?
