    Default Photo Capture via Twain

    Hello folks,

    I have found a way in Sugar to upload a photo of a contact thanks to the help of this site...

    http://www.crmstage.com/tutorials/ad...ontact-record/

    However, I'd like to take this a step further and instead of upload... call onto a TWAIN ActiveX control to scan/capture the photo straight into Sugar. This is just to avoid having to scan, save the file, then upload it to Sugar. One click and your done. Anyone have any ideas?

    You'd need some custom code that listens for Twain events or functions as a plugin within your capture software and in turn links it to the record in Sugar.

    I am not aware of any pre-packaged software that does that. Nice idea though. Might have to tinker with it at home.
