Could someone suggest me how to activate a scanner from Forms 6i using activex. I have not used activex controls in forms so please suggest me what steps to be followed.
I have to invoke the scanner and store the image into database.

Place an OCX item into the canvas
and right click on it using the mouse and select insert
object from the list of controls select kodak image scan control and click ok,
( if this control is not available, pls make sure that
you have installed Imaging for windows )

you will see that the ocx item has changed to
scanner like button

now click on program in the menu bar and select
import ole library interface
list of ole classes will be displayed from that select
Imaging.ScanCtrl.1 or Imaging.Scanctrl
and below that you can find the methods and events listed select all and click ok

now go to the object navigator and you can see some
package, procedure and function would have been created
in the program units directory.

Call those program, passing the required parameters
and scanning works well.

In case you want to know the program code also
mail to
mail4shankar@rediffmail.com

Can I have any code example for the calls to the library programs?
I need open the scanner and save the returned image (jpeg) into filesystem directory. Then I will save it in a BLOB column.
Thank you in advance and sorry by my English.
