When I use Kodak Imaging Controls to activate the scanner and save the image
as TRY.BMP then use VFP Image Control to display the picture, I get this
error "Picture too big, corrupted, or in wronmg format.". I can as the
scanned image as TIF, but how to view TIF in my VFP form?

Since VFP 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0 do not natively view TIF files, you need to
search for an ActiveX control to display the TIF file.

Visual FoxPro 8.0 has the capability to display TIF files without using a
third-party control.

I did a quick search on Universalthread and found a few tools that handle
TIF images. Go to www.universalthread.com, click on the Download icon, and
choose Visual FoxPro as the product. In the Summary text box of the query
page, search for "TIF.

I hope this helps.
