Have been doing some research into OLE. There does not seem to be many books out there on the subject eccept for past versions of VB.
Am after this info to start working on a VB form that will allow the user to scan new documents in.
What we are after is a form tht shows what docuements have been scanned in a specific folder. The user can click on the douements displayed an then view them. They can also puh abutton and san new docuements in.
Have looked into the option of using the imaging software (standard on Microsoft O/S). It does not seem to give us all the capabilities that we will need. Have chosen word insteed.
Would like the form not to show the pull down menus just the files in the folder, a word OLE and a big button for scanning.
OLE sems the way to go on this one.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
It also seems that if it is possible to use VBA as well as VB. So the user would on new scans be looking at a *.DOT document whih would have the macro inside it. The button would activate the VBA code and it would atomatically save.
Also would anyone know of a book out there that shows how to work with such tasks.
