No need to click your Bic to sign your name-your mouse can do the trick with Sign-It. The utility lets you put your John Hancock on Windows documents electronically in any application. You mail your signature to the program's maker, Apropos Software, for conversion into a smooth, scalable TrueType font. You then use OLE to create, insert and edit your signature in documents. Sign-It includes macros that add the Sign-It command and icon to MS Word, Excel and WordPerfect menus and toolbars.
