IIRC, there are ActiveX objects which can do this. I've seen one from LeadTools, but there must be others as well. Not sure whether cameras can use the Twain interface, that's for scanners; if they do, there's even more stuff to choose from. But then I've heard that Twain is obsolete - and my information about this is even more so, it's been years since I last messed with that.
But I do have shots of myself taken from a VFP app. It's just that I look younger on them :).
