Ken,

That's good to know. You're right - I need a solution today, but I'll keep this in mind so that come Toledo, I can easily replace the ActiveX stuff with native VFP controls. Will Toledo have a Twain control or will I still need to use a 3rd party control for interfacing with twain-compliant scanner software? Thanks for responding.

>>Anyway, some of the scanned images are multiple pages - so I'm saving them as TIF files. The problem is, the VFP Image control doesn't support TIFs. I'd like to have a control that I can drop on a form to view these multi-page scan images.

>Toledo will support TIF images and more. I showed enhanced image support like this including animated GIF files in the EssentialFox keynote during the Toledo sneak preview. I realize that this doesn't help you today, but I'm letting you know for your planning.
