    Next question …

    Anyone have a strategy for capturing an image from a webcam from withing Access?

    Possible shelling to an external app but hopefully without (too many) sendkeys!!!

      Sounds ugly!
      I’d write an AutoIt script to perform the capture and write to a standard file. As I said, not pretty, but I don’t think there is an easy way to identify the correct screen and then capture it.

      cheers, Paul
