Capture image with Webcam

[Herdrich]

I am trying to be able to capture an image with a webcam then attach it temporarily or permanently to a record then print out a badge from a form. I have already created a template in a form and linked to a table to save the data. But have no clue how to be able to add a picture.

Thanks,
~Glenn

I haven't done much with images, so I apologize if this is wrong, but you can create a place in a table for an OLE Object that will hold pictures. This way you can associate a picture with a particular person, which will help out on your form.

You will have to save the image to a folder that the database can access and then insert the picture into the field you create on the table. To insert a picture, you can either right-click the field and choose 'Insert Object' or you can go to the Insert menu and choose the 'Object'.

This may not be exactly what you're after, especially if you want more automation, but I hope it helps get you started.
