I have just started using a tablet pc, and have found the MS sticky notes
programme very useful. The problem, however, is that you can only export
sticky notes as *.snt files, making them completely useless to non-tablet
users (like my PA!)

I have searched all over for a "sticky note reader" of some description, but
had no success, and am pretty amazed that microsoft does not offer one. In
fact, the windows XP web service does not recognise the file, even though it
is classed as a microsoft file type!!

Any help would be much appreciated.

Here's a very usable, free solution (sort of like Sticky Notes, except
better), but you need to make sure you're running the English version of
Windows XP SP2 and the Tablet PC Edition 2005 first. Then download the
Experience Pack for Tablet PC:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

It includes Ink Desktop, Snipping Tool, Ink Art, Media Transfer and Ink
Crossword, as well as the Energy Blue Theme Pack. If you have any previous
version of those installed, you need to uninstall them before installing the
Experience Pack. Reminder: This is only for the English language edition.
It will not install on other language versions.
