But if you are wanting to actually control the scaner I would look at freshmeat.net to see what is found there. Good luck, I doubt it. If you really want a networked scanner I expect you would need to buy one. But for the life of me, I don't understand how this would be useful beyond the solution of saving a file on a network available location, unless you happen to have a sheet fed scanner and were scanning a document of multiple pages. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net "When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missle at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
