Good Morning,

I work with a group of people who use laptops on a mobile coach to provide care to under privledged people.

We use an access database to keep track of all of the patients data that is entered...mostly general information. No detailed information (such as doctors notes are kept in the database)

We are currently (physically) carrying all of the charts to each clinic and would like to implement some sort of scanning systems where we could access the scanned images within the database.

Thanks in advance to everyone! :) EC
 
You wouldn't want to store the scanned images in the MDB. It is much more common to store the filename and path to the image files in your database tables.
