Hi All, I'm in the design stage of re-developing an ancient database my customer has been using since the mid-80's into 4D. The users are not very computer-literate. They have to deal with a lot of physical paper for each of their clients which presently reside in numerous file cabinets. To work with a client, they need to go pull the physical file and sift-through the paperwork. One of their new-feature asks is to make this client paperwork available on-screen. The environment will be Windows 10 and Server 2012 R2 with about 20-users. I'd like to see it function like this... The user displays a client info screen. There would be a <Capture Image> button. When clicked, a dialog would be presented where the user could enter a file-name (or 4D would auto-generate a file name) and enter a brief document description . There would be a <Scan> button. When clicked, this would activate the scanner and when finished the document would be saved with a link to the client. Any suggestions for how to proceed would be MOST appreciated. Any suggestions as to the best or easiest scanner hardware to integrate (Fujitsu ScanSnap??) into this application would also be MOST appreciated. I don't foresee that the scanner would need to be on the network - it could be direct-conneted to one user's workstation who would be responsible for scanning the documents into the system.
