>Hello

>I need to install a camera in a warehouse linked to a vfp application. I need to attach a photo of the merchandise to the product file. It has to be simple for the operator. The camera is always positionned correctly so there is no need for the operator to touch it. He only need to clic on a button in my application and, hop!, the picture is in the memo field.
>Easy to say! How the hell could I do this ? Any special kind of camera to do that ?

Do a search on Google for: network camera, you should find a bunch of various devices that can be connected directly into your LAN. These cameras usually have a built-in web server which would allow you to connect to them and download the picture using IE automation, or a product like wwIPStuff from www.west-wind.com

They might also include an ActiveX control which you could use instead.
