>Has somebody worked with controlling a Digital Camera using VFP?

Not a digital camera, but direct video acquisition. I wrote a .DLL using Borland Pascal to control the image acquisition board directly (it was a custom design for medical imaging) and then processed the .BMP files created by the .DLL directly.

You should be able to use up-to-date cameras via TWAIN, they supply the necessary drivers, but you need to have imaging software you can control via Automation - or a .DLL to do the image grabbing.

You might find the MS Imaging software (by Wang) on the MS website, it was about 6 months ago I downloaded it and things change there rather quickly.
