Capturing images from a VFP application 1

[wtotten]

I may need the ability for user to be able to take a picture with a camera and then I'll need to store the image on the server and and link to the image file. Any suggestions/experience that you have regarding how to do this form VFP?

Bill, I've done exactly that in one of my applications. I wrote up the steps here:

It might slightly out of date, but the principles are sound. In fact, it worked very well.

Mike,

That should do the trick. Thanks again.

Mike,

Follow-up; any idea if that DLL will work with XP, Win7 32-bit and Win7 64-bit?

It definitely works with XP. I've no reason to suppose it won't work with later systems, but I can't be sure. But that information should be available on the Dosadi site.
