Default Add the "aquire text" function

When I had word 2000 there was a button on the file menu called "aquire
text." It controled a scanner and used the OCR software to imput the text
into the doccument. When I upgraded to Word 2003 (for students & teachers)
this function was unavailable. Please Help Me. Thanks in advance Samuel Wyld.

Look under your Start menu (All) Programs Microsoft Office Microsoft
Office Tools for Document Imaging. (I found this using help looking for
optical character; I haven't used it myself. I use the PaperPort software
that came with my scanner.)
