Capture Signatures

[Learn2010]

I need to capture signatures on forms in my databases and store them for future recall and print them as a report. I don't want to reuse a signature, but would like to store it as part of a record either in my back-end DB or another external linked DB. I don't want to create a file for a signature. Protocol requires a new signature on each form.

Storage is not the issue here but rather how do I get a signature from a customer into a record using a touchscreen computer. I posted on this before but was a bit confused after going at it.

I now have more specifics. I am getting a new laptop, an HP EliteBook 850 G4. Starting from scratch and not using a peripheral device, what do I have to do at this point to set up the programs to receive a signature?

I am open to programming ideas and external modules that can be imported. I need it to be as simple as possible.

As always, I am very thankful for your help.

I gave you an example database in this thread together with a link to a different example:

You could just import the example I supplied

Not sure what to add to previous explanations without a more specific question

I found a demo and downloaded it from the following:

Do I just import all the objects into my DB and integrate it into the program? If so, will this affect any other objects in the program

Thank you.

That's exactly the same example by the DB Guy as I provided in my previous post.
I tried it as a standalone database and it worked well.
I haven't used it in my own databases as I developed my own version(which I posted in the other thread)

If you are using the demo by the DBGuy, I suggest you ask him the questions

Good luck
