this sounds great. but I'm still looking for a windows compatible sane DLL. Do you mean that I can just compile the sane source code in visual studio as a Win32 DLL?? I may be mistaken somewhere. I'm not familiar with linux system. If there is a DLL that I can compile and/or install in WIndows XP and use as an API, then that's just what I want. Please let me know where I can download it as source or compiled version. I think such a DLL will work fine with C# frontend. BTW, there is already one SANE frontend that also works with Windows XP, > Xsane.

This could also Compile under cygwin?? Sorry I didnt get that. u mean cygwin has a "gcc' command. But the one I have does not have it. Did you mean to install using cygwin.

Run the cygwin setup app (http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe) and on the packages page select "gcc" (in the Devel section). You should also get "make" and to help ensure an easy compile get libusb-win32, libjpeg and libtiff. cheers, Jon
