I am trying to automate interaction with Imaging for Windows. Found
this great object model with properties and methods for everything I
want to do but I'll be darned if I can get a variable assigned to the
application object.

Depending on where you look, MS says to set the application object as
either:

Dim App as object

1.) Set app = CreateObject("IWangImagemaging.Application")

or

2.) Set app = CreateObject("Imaging.Application")

For me in MS Access 2000/Windows 2000 I cannot accomplish this
seemingly simple feat.

1.) Gives the runtime error "429 Active X component cannot create
object"
2.) Often won't even compile and sometimes compiles and gives the
error above when run.

What I really want to do is access the object while open (displaying a
..tif from an OLE object field), cause it to do a SaveAs on the
ActiveDocument (so I can get the file out of the database) and then
Print the ImageFile object.

Anyone out there beaten this one into submission already?

Thanks!
