I have downloaded the TWAIN SDK from the twain org website, but am having a heck of a time understanding it all. &nbsp;I want scan a small image from my scanner and use the newly acquired bitmap in my program. &nbsp;Does anyone know how to implement the acquire funtion? (or ANY function for that matter) &nbsp;How do i get the scanner to scan, and How do i retreive the image that is scanned? &nbsp;I am using visualc++ 5. &nbsp;I am reading the literature included in the devel. kit but it is confusing. a more simplified approach would be helpful. thanks.

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
