Hi Steph, I too am using tthe tryal version of FineReader express and have never gotten it to work, so this suggestion may be worth every penny you paid for it :).
Disclaimer aside, I believe you need to select your scanner in the menu associated with "get images from". If your only choice is "file" then either you don't have a Twane scanner, or the software supporting your scanner is not recognized by ABBYY. Once your scanner is selected, pressing a button such as: "convert to text document" should activate your scanner. Except on my system where it consistently hangs up even though I have a twane compatible device. Hope you get further than I have so far.
