>Are there any imaging products that can be addressed by ole automation? I'm looking for something that will display an image and zoom it and maybe rotate it, basic things like that. I know that VFP can display an image but I need somewhat more functionality than just display. For manual image manipulation, I use ThumbsPlus but I doubt it exposes an ole interface. Any ideas on this? (Is this the correct category for this question? Or should I post this in the ActiveX category?)

I have found that the Kadak imaging control in Win2k does an excellent job. I was using Pegasus, and founf that the Kodak object does a much cleaner and dependable job. The properties and methods are bared so that you can call them.

There is a large section in MSDN about its native (Kodak) imaging control. If you are using XP, I understand that there is a way to use it also in XP, although it is not included natively in XP.
