Integrating progress application with camera

[Abbashatim]

Has anyone done application with ability to take photograph within an application.
What I mean is that the user click on a button in the application-program.
the camera should take photograph, save the photograph into a designated file.
and pass the file name to the application.

your help in any form for this matter is very much appreciated.

Thanks
abbas

maybe do a search for twain. i remember someone writing a 4gl wrapper a long time ago.

you could probably find lots of c/c++ libraries you could interface to or an ocx you can call or a .net tool you can use through the .net bridge.

I did somthing about 15 years ago using AXIS network webcam which came with SDK. OCX/ACTIVEX control, simply dragged and dropped the object into a Window Frame and that was it. This was using Progress 9.1C....
