Has anyone gotten Access 2003 to work with the Kodak imaging controls?

I have databases that use these, and when I open the forms with these
controls, I receive errors. The controls are listed in the references and
show up in the ActiveX controls. When I make a new database and then
construct a new form with one of these controls I receive the error
"Microsoft Office Access doesn't support this ActiveX control". I have
tried this on multiple machines.

Does anybody know a work around? If not Does anybody have a good suggestion
for a replacement of these controls. We use the scanning/image display/
zoom and image annotation features of these controls.

Thanks,

Lynn.

For image handling controls which folks have stated work with Access
see the Image Handling Tips page at my website.

Have you folks explicitly tested your control in Access? I ask
because of the following.

Many ActiveX controls do not work inside MS Access unless the vendor
specifically states that they do support Access. In which case they
will likely also have sample code on their website. For more details
see the following Knowledge Base articles at support.microsoft.com.

This would work fine for displaying the image but what about scanning it?
Any suggestions for an activex control which will scan in an image similar
to how the kodak imaging controls did?

Thanks.

Most likely the reason the Imaging ActiveX controls do not work i
because whenever Internet Explorer is installed, and sometimes whe
Internet Explorer is updated, a registry setting is set to prevent th
ActiveX Control from running. A very early version of the Imagin
ActiveXs were declared 'Safe for Scripting' inaccurately. To prevent
security breech, Internet Explorer prevents the ActiveX Control fro
running. This problem was corrected n years ago and the controls are n
longer marked 'Safe for Scripting'.

In order to overcome this registry setting, reset the Compatibilit
Flags value to 0.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Active
Compatibility\CLSID of the ActiveX control

*where CLSID of the ActiveX Control is the class identifier of th
appropriate ActiveX control.

If you are running the purchasable version of the Kodak Imaging Active
Controls, they are available via eiStream at eiStream.com. There is a
update available for versions 2.6, 2.7, 2.8 for removing the killbi
setting.

I hope his helps you out
