How to detect and use a webcam to take picture in VB .NET

Hi,

I am trying to write an application involving taking pictures with a
Web Camera in VB .NET.

I am just wondering how I can detect and control the web camera within
my application. The web cam I currently have is from Creative.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thank you,

Charlie Chang

Depending on the operating system (IIRC, Windows XP natively, and 2000 with
an addon pack), check out "WIA" Windows Image Acquisition.
