Hi everyone
I want to be able to collect input data from scanned documents for an existing accounts system I have written in WinDev. I am wondering if WinDev has functions for that or will I need to look to a third party product. Any suggestions as to the best approach to this will be much appreciated.
Kind regards
Kevin |

| Hi, a scanner delivers an IMAGE - not text. WinDev has functions to make a scanner work, but not to analyze an image and convert its content into text. A bit too much asked for, eh. However, there are libraries (DLLs) or even full blown and expensive software packages for sale which will do the trick. Use Google and search sourceforge.net for an appropriate OCR software. But, having the text (or maybe, only fractions or some misread parts) of a document doesn't necessarily mean that you have real data. Regards, Guenter |

Thanks Guenter
In view of what you have said I won't waste my time trying to do this with WinDev alone. I am now hoping that some Windever has already done this and can guide me to the best third party tools. The source material I want to scan is most likely to be supplier invoices which will have a recognisable(fixed) structure but may vary from one supplier to another.
Kind regards

There are many OCR packages out there. Below is 1

You might consider Semi-Automating the process by having your WD application
launch the installed OCR package (Maybe make this a configurable option in
your system) and then switch to that program. WHen the user scans in their
documents, have WD pick up the output and process them.
Sometimes it is not worth trying to re-invent (or invent) a solution when
there are other options.
Just my thought.
