Jan: I client just got a Samsung Ultra for field data acquisition. Are you by any chance using the built in camera to capture photos directly to a form? If yes, how are you bringing pictures into forms, DLLs?

But I hope to have it resolved at the conference in 3 weeks. I have invested in 11 Samsung Ultra's for field deployment and need to figure out the signature capture.

Anyone have experience with this or an Idea where to start? At 12:06 PM 9/29/2008, you wrote: Razzak, I am reading between the lines, and dreaming a bit. Are you saying it is possible to have a form with an editable field that you could 'write' in on a tablet PC? That is exactly what I am trying to copy another vendor was trying to sell my Boss. If I can emulate that, we will be buying 15 Tablets, and I am writing a whole Service Tech suite to do invoicing in the field and trasmit the data back so we can have our numbers in real time rather than waiting days for paper invoices to come back in, then having someone type them all in. But capturing a customer signature is the key.
