Hi all Found out why Access 2003 denies to load the Kodak Imaging controls and how to remove that blocking. It is - believe it or not - because Access 2003 refuses to use ActiveX controls which for some reason are listed as insecure in Internet Explorer ... as explained here: http://mail.localplanet.co.uk/Blogs/stuart/archive/2005/02/19/AccessActiveX.aspx What it tells is to reset the Compatibility Flag for these entries to 0: Kodak Image Admin Control HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\ {009541A0-3B81-101C-92F3-040224009C02} Kodak Image Edit Control HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\ {6D940280-9F11-11CE-83FD-02608C3EC08A} Kodak Image Scan Control HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\ {84926CA0-2941-101C-816F-0E6013114B7F} Rich Text Control HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\ {3B7C8860-D78F-101B-B9B5-04021C009402} /gustav >>> Gustav at cactus.dk 20-02-2005 17:32:10 >>> Hi all I have done some testing with a sample app Neal kindly provided which uses the Kodak Imaging ocx controls. It works fine with my old Agfa Snapscan test scanner - as long as I don't run it in Access 2003. Whatever I do (references, late binding etc. etc.), when moved to A2003 it refuses to talk with the twain driver - it is as if A2003 expects a higher version or similar of the twain driver. Neither will the edit control activate in A2003.
