On one of my forms I placed an activeX-control InkPicture. Users fill out the form and sign it with a tablet. Is there a possibility to save the signature to a record, and later on print this signature on a report.
I found this topic (don't know how to link (http://www.utteraccess.com/forum/Storing-ActiveX-Record-t1785997.html)), but it doesn't mention anything about saving to a record.
Can someone help me?
Thnx

Hi Rene
I tried to do the same thing for a couple years. I ended up writing a VB.Net signature pad that gets "called" from my access 2007 application, and captures the ink and saves it to the database. It is tricky to get the ink to print so what I had to do is save the ink as a gif, store in a directory, and then stream the gif to a data field.
I can show you what i did if it helps, and you are welcome to the source code of it as well.
