I take this comment because it work almost perfect is faster than oters components and the control is shiped in windows.

I found a little error in the code but nothing important:

now is: imgScan1.Picture.LoadFromFile(Image1.Image);
should be: Image1.Picture.LoadFromFile(ImgScan1.Image);

thanks for your Help Tasomia

Thanks for returning and finalizing this. Also thanks for letting us know why a "B" versus "A" grade was chosen by adding the bug code error information.

what about the version conflicts with the supplied imgScan controls ?

win95 and win98 are incompatible
so is win2k incompatible with the others
(found that out when using VB with these)
