Hi ProFoxers.
I haven't posted in a decade or two, but I'm still hanging around.
I am writing an app for my son to manage his business. He's a therapist
and routinely jots down notes on a small notepad during his client
sessions. He later adds typewritten notes into the client record but he
also takes a picture of his handwritten notes and copies/pastes it into
the client record. He's been using OneNote to accomplish this but he
wants to move away from that. So I started my app and it creates the
client records and the memo fields needed for the notes but I can't
figure out what to do with the picture.
Now I know that the standard advice is "do not store the picture in a
General field, store the path to the picture..." But I'm wondering if
there is a device or third party app that I could use to link the
picture to the client record. I even thought about him using a tablet
with an electronic pen to store his scribblings and somehow tie that
into my Foxpro table.
Just looking for ideas on how to incorporate images with Foxpro records
elegantly.
Thanks.
Ken Watkins
