In a db I store passport-size pics. I want to save the picture and not a link to a file in the db. Worked well for some time, but then I bought a new SONY flatbed scanner. Now there is no *scanner* object in the list of available OLE-objects.
How can I manually or automatically update the objecttype list? (I cannot find the list in the registry)

 
You may have to manually add a reference to your scanner. Go to a code view in your application. Then select Tools, then References from the menu. If your scanner isn't listed in Available References, you can click browse to find the type library associated with the scanner. You may have to consult the documentation for the scanner or even call the vendor to find the exact filename.
