LiveCode Forums.

I have a membership database project where I need to scan documents into a "member's" record.
Is there an extension, or has anyone incorporated scanning a document into a livecode app?
I understand I can launch the scanning app from my app, but is there a way to have it saved in a record?

Thanks in advance for any input!

Hi Rob,

Try to do it the other way around. Most simple scanning apps have an option to select an app that should be launched and open the scanned document. Select your LiveCode app and use either AppleEvents on Mac OS X or the relaunch message on Windows to handle the document.

Kind regards,

Mark

Thanks Mark! Great idea!
