"wrapper COM objects" = ActiveX.
Are the Libraries Methods published? Maybe you have a link to a web site where
I can look at the documentation.
If they are and their Return Values are of type Variant, then I would have a
workAround for that.
Also, you should elaborated on what value you are trying to return to RBase.
If Not then are there also published the exported functions of the C++ Dlls?
Then there is the last possibility, as long as it is Twain Compliant, you could
write your own DLL to control the Scanner.
I did an a very incomplete testbed 9 years ago in VB6, so the Twain Library if
I remember right would do all the rudimentry things, but the library that comes
with your scanner is doubtless written directly to address all its'
capabilities.
