    VB.Net scanning from Twain Driver

    So - we are FED UP with our medical records packaging (document imaging) system and want to create a simple filing interface for our scanners to use in VB. Part of this deal is getting VB to interact with a TWAIN Driver.

    There is some code out there for ASP.NET and C# - does anyone know of a VB.Net based code I could look at?

    I have spent part of my day trying to recreate the ASP into VB but the calls are just different enough to get interesting.

    I had that code already downloaded and testing - but in C#. I was attempting a line by line conversion but it was getting messy. However - I did find this link where someone already did a line by line conversion and I have it working in VS2008 W7 environment. I will be adding the iTextSharp .pdf writer component to complete what my needs are.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    We actually did .Net Twain testing for a month and did not have success in setting all of our parameters. So what we ended up doing was keeping the ScandAllPro (Fujitsu) software, mapping a drive for all scanners, and having the program create for them a scanning hold place where the program would look for items to be electronically filed. That way we could keep the functionality of the ScandAll Pro software - something our scanners were use to.
