Controlling a scanner in a VBA procedure

MLH
I intend to code a button on a form that will
a - prompt me to place a document on scanner
b - initiate the scan
c - save bmp/jpg image file it to a specified location
d - write the filename used to a table field

I'm sure this is loaded with complexities and gotchas.
Anyone have anything to offer that may help keep me
out-a-trouble?

We recently did something like that, and used the Paperport software
that came with the scanner to do most of the work.
