Hi Paul

As mentioned many times here, I can recommend these two components:

  http://www.ciansoft.com/twaincontrolx/default.asp 
  http://www.chestysoft.com/ximage/default.asp 

The first contains Twain functionality only while the second includes powerful image manipulation too.
The Twain functionality is nearly identical (same code base).

They are not free to obtain but free to distribute. Free non-expiring trials are available. 
The cost, however, is very well spend because the support is excellent from both sources, and you will need support, believe me. Twain is a standard but most manufacturers tweak it a little so when things don't behave as expected ...

To all,

I need to develop an application, which will involve scanning some documents
etc.  Does anyone know of or use a Twain ActiveX Control (preferably easy to
use & most of all free, or very cheap)

Thank you for any help on this.....
