Hi, hope you can help. I have downloaded and installed your software as i would like to use this to show images in Access 2010. The images have been stored as ‘image’ data type in SQL Server and I have exported the fields from SqlServer along with the image field that is in this format ’460001010100C000C00000F’ Can you advise me how I can use your ActiveX control to display the photo’s? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Rgds Glyn
AccessImagine is fully compatible with Microsoft Access 2010.
In your case pictures are stored in SQL database as JPEG images. AccessImagine can display and manipulate them without any conversions or additional programming.
is there a action command to call on the activex object to paste from clipboard?
There is no command to paste for clipboard for now, the only way is the user clicks the apropriate button.
We can add this command in next update, if you need it.
1.08 update includes .Paste and .Copy scripting commands.
Data in table are stored as bmp image.how to convert them to long binary data
Its a 2-moves task.
1st you need to save your OLE-objects to disk. There are several tools for this, one is here – http://www.lebans.com/oletodisk.htm
2nd you need to import images in your database in proper way – with the help of AccessImagine, for example.
Thanks.It works with bmp ole , but what in case picture ole
It doesn’t extract other filetypes? You can try some other 3rdparty tool then.
with oletodisk apl. iI extracred all pictures to disk as jpeg and then insert in mdb.Thanks a lot!
well i just downloaded this component, the features are quite interesting, anyways i liked it!!
Can the TWAIN upload tool be connected to a webcam to grab a frame? Like for an ID badge?
Sure. Most webcams support TWAIN interface.
For webcams, that do not, can be used one of 3rd-party utilities that make them TWAN-compliant.
Can a seperate button on the form take the picture (webcam) and save it to the current record
I can not figure out how the undo feature works. Do you have any documentation on it. I was also wondering if you can turn on/off some of the other commands like “scan” that appear in the image window when the user clicks the picture. I am a registered user. Thanks.
The undo feature is designed to return to the original picture that was in database before any operations. Does it behaves in such a way?
There is no way to turn off Scan button now. Do you need this so hard?
I assume you mean that the control must be bound to work. I was using the control unbound by using the .LoadFile() method. Controlling the features would be a nice addition to the next release. Thanks for the reply.
this software excellent.Can direct capture from camera NIKON D7000.Is EZ to do a picture data
I’m afraid AccessImagine wount do direct capture from Nikon.
It seems that it would be trivial to allow other types of files to be attached such as PDF, docx and so on. Those of us who use a MySQL backend could use that ability and eliminate that ole object
Thats not so trivial, as the logic for images and general-file-storage is quite different. Maybe we will create another component for files, instead of regular Attachment type.
I am very interested in your product, but wanted to make sure everything works before buying. My problem is I have created the table and form/some pictures have been added, but after creating a report in Access 2010, the pictures don’t transfer into it. How do I go about getting the pictures in my form to show up in my report? Thank you
You need to place AccessImagine object in your report the same way you do in forms – nothing special.
FAnatastic product – but how do I get the the scan function to access the webcam instead of the default scanner
It’s a problem a bit, because AccessImagine doesn’t have source selection to not confuse users.
It always uses the default one. Here is info, how to specify default TWAIN source thru the registry. Try it and write me back, please:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Twain is the location of the Windows Default Twain Device
String name ‘Default Source’ and the value is the path of the the .ds file for the scanner (ex. C:\WINDOWS\Twain_32\CSSN800N\CSSN800N.DS)
I’m using the control with in MS ACCESS. How can I delete images I´m showing in a form to be ready to do new operations with a new register ( I need “TO BLANK” all the fiedls including OCX fields.
Thanks
If you have AccessImagine object, linked to the image field, you can make this:
AccessImagineObjectName.Image = null
Hi
I have Installed the software it is very beautiful
but am facing aproblem in inserting the picture to my table for specific employee , am using the insert code can any one help me please
Sure, please write to our support e-mail (at the bottom of the page) with the description of your problem.
hi
How do you export the images out of access
It depends of the method you saved images in Access.
For OLE pictures you should use http://www.lebans.com/oletodisk.htm
For AccessImagine images you should use SaveFile VBA command. Place a button on form with AccessImagine image and bind such a script to it:
For i = 1 To N
Pic.SaveFile (“c:\MyPics\” + Str(ID) + “.jpg”)
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNext
Next i
For images saved as attachment you need another script too.
I could really use this for an application i’m working on if it supported .tif – .tiff images. any chance of that happenin?
AccessImagine doesn’t support TIFFs because there was no big demand from users. Why you need this? I’d like to hear your story.
TIFF support can be added quickly, if there is a demand.
