Hello,
I am new in Visual Studio .NET 2003. I have a form as a visula basic application and I need to add a component to my form so that I can scan a business card with a BizCard Twain card scanner. Scanner is working fine with its application however I need to add the feature to my application. What kind of control should I add to my form to accomplish it? Is there any sample source code?
Thanks,
Sera

I think that there is no support for Image capture in managed code, so one
easy approach is to buy a 3rd party control for Twain and .NET such (I have
not used it, just searching Google).

Another approach is to download the SDK from
http://www.twain.org/download.htm and do it yourself using P/Invoke.
