sounds tricky...unless there is activeX control. I had someone ask me how to take pics with webcam...I can scan stuff in with Kodak Active X control...very easy...so suggest you look in your active X controls and mess about.
Hi!

There are a lot of Webcam's in different tech what it is.

For Logitech webcam's there is a SDK and controls.
http://developer.logitech.com/

The Kodak control is good for still images, tiff etc available, basicly the moving picture is available whit it too but need to capture the screen area self by other methods. This componet comes bundled whit Windows and older versions of 95 are whitout it.

MPEG difficult and have not seen anything for VB for free.
